Olum Material Corporation has 6 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The matters involve 6 distinct examiners but 3 distinct art units, indicating that examiner diversity is greater than art-unit diversity and that some technical groups handle multiple matters.
PATEL, PARESH H is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Portfolio oversight should therefore track examiner-specific practice while also grouping matters by art unit to identify recurring technical or claim-drafting issues.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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 (17%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 5 (83%) |
