Ocean University Of China is managing 3 pending office actions in the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals technology area. These actions are distributed among 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units. This spread suggests that the 3 active matters involve different biological or pharmaceutical sub-disciplines, as each is being reviewed by a different examiner in a separate specialized unit.
JACKSON, SHAWQUIA is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, currently handling 1 pending office action. Because each of the 3 actions is assigned to a different examiner and art unit, there is no central point of influence for the portfolio's current prosecution. Practitioners should expect to manage 3 unique examiner relationships and navigate the specific standards of different art units, requiring an individualized approach to each of the 3 pending matters in the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals sector.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (50%) |
