Olea Medical currently faces 2 pending office actions concentrated in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These actions are spread across 2 distinct art units, reflecting a prosecution footprint that is technically diverse relative to its small size. Managing 2 pending office actions in this manner requires a strategy that accounts for the specific nuances of different mechanical and medical examination standards.
The company's active matters are assigned to 2 distinct examiners, which limits the opportunity for consolidated negotiations. LI, JOHN DENNY is the busiest examiner in the portfolio, holding 1 pending office action. Because the busiest examiner handles only 1 pending office action out of the 2 total, the workload is distributed evenly across the assigned personnel, requiring independent engagement for each case.
This distribution across 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units suggests that Olea Medical must prepare for varied feedback. Practitioners should note that the busiest examiner, LI, JOHN DENNY, does not hold a majority of the pending cases, meaning that prosecution outcomes will depend equally on the second examiner. The lack of concentration in a single art unit or under a single examiner necessitates a case-by-case approach to resolution for the applicant.
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.
