Norman BV is currently addressing 1 pending office action in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area.

The prosecution is occurring within 1 distinct art unit, reflecting a focused technical classification for the company's current filing.
The presence of 1 pending office action indicates that the company's current workload at the patent office is concentrated on a single case. MCGOWAN, JAMIE LOUISE is the sole examiner responsible for this 1 pending action, making the interaction with this individual the primary focus of the company's immediate prosecution strategy. Since the case is in 1 distinct art unit, the company only needs to navigate the specific procedural environment of that single unit. This allows for a very targeted approach to resolving the 1 outstanding office action.
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.
