Neurogeneces Inc. is currently managing 2 pending office actions within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These actions are split across distinct examiners and distinct art units, with each of those categories totaling 2. This distribution indicates that the company's current patent filings are being reviewed by different technical groups within the USPTO, rather than being concentrated in a single specialized unit.
The busiest examiner for the portfolio is RUMAISA RASHID BAIG, who is currently handling 1 busiest examiner pending action. Given the total workload, the actions are evenly distributed, with each examiner managing a single action apiece. This lack of concentration means that the company must navigate the specific requirements and tendencies of multiple technical units simultaneously. The 1 busiest examiner pending action represents a key point of contact for the company's legal strategy.
For a portfolio of this size, having multiple examiners across various art units for the active filings suggests a range of applications within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering sector. Practitioners must tailor their responses to the specific standards of each unit involved to ensure successful prosecution across the entire active portfolio. Understanding the individual preferences of RUMAISA RASHID BAIG and the other assigned examiner is essential for moving these 2 pending office actions toward allowance.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (50%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (50%) |
