Nortiva Bio Inc. has 3 pending office actions in Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals. Those matters are distributed among 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units, indicating that the portfolio does not depend on a single examination assignment.
PEEBLES, KATHERINE is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Counsel can therefore organize prosecution by matter and examiner, while tracking the separate art-unit contexts individually.
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 (33%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (33%) |
