Oso Perforating LLC currently has 1 pending office action within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. This single matter is assigned to a distinct examiner, CARROLL, DAVID P., who is also the busiest examiner with a count of 1 pending action. The case is situated within a distinct art unit, which defines the technical context for the company's active prosecution.
Because there is only a single pending office action, the prosecution profile is highly centralized. The focus is entirely on the interaction with CARROLL, DAVID P. within that specific art unit. This limited scope means the company's current active patent strategy in this technology area is concentrated on a single point of review. There are no other pending actions or examiners to provide a broader context for the company's current experience at the office. Practitioners must focus on the specific precedents of the distinct art unit involved to advance this matter.
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.
