Omnitracs LLC has 2 pending office actions within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. This workload is distributed across 2 distinct art units, requiring the applicant to address the standards of 2 separate administrative groups. The prosecution involves 2 distinct examiners, which prevents any examiner from having influence over the company's pending matters.
RHEE, ROY B is the busiest examiner with 1 pending office action. Because the 2 pending actions are assigned to 2 distinct examiners, each examiner is responsible for 1 pending action. This distribution across 2 distinct art units highlights the prosecution landscape for the company's current applications.
