Ningbo Sunny Opotech Co., Ltd. is managing 2 pending office actions within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. These actions are split between 2 distinct art units, showing that the company's prosecution efforts are distributed across different specialized groups within the patent office.
The portfolio is being reviewed by 2 distinct examiners, which ensures that each of the 2 pending office actions is handled by a different person. This arrangement provides a variety of perspectives on the company's applications and prevents any single examiner from controlling the outcome of the entire active portfolio.
LEE, MATTHEW Y is identified as the busiest examiner for the company, currently responsible for 1 pending office action. Since the busiest examiner handles 1 out of the 2 total pending matters, the prosecution workload is balanced across the distinct examiners involved in the company's current active filings.
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.
