Technology areas: Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals • Chemistry & Materials • Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering

Orbray Co. Ltd. currently manages 2 pending office actions within the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals technology area. These actions are distributed across 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. This distribution indicates a broader technical or administrative footprint compared to portfolios where all matters are concentrated under a single point of contact. The use of 2 distinct art units suggests that the company's innovations may span different sub-specialties within the broader biotechnology sector.
The busiest examiner for the company is MARTIN, PAUL C, who is responsible for 1 busiest examiner pending office action. This examiner handles a portion of the company's total 2 pending office actions. The remaining pending action is managed by the other of the 2 distinct examiners, requiring the company to navigate multiple examiner preferences simultaneously. This split workload means that the prosecution strategy cannot be entirely centralized, as each examiner may have different interpretations of the prior art or procedural requirements.
With 2 pending office actions in total, the portfolio is in a state of active review across multiple channels. The presence of 2 distinct examiners provides the company with different perspectives on their patent applications. Practitioners should monitor the progress of the 1 busiest examiner pending office action under MARTIN, PAUL C while also addressing the requirements of the second examiner to ensure consistent results across the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals technology area.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 3 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 3 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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 |
|---|---|
| §102 only | 1 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (67%) |
