Oxos Medical Inc. currently has 2 pending office actions within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. These actions are assigned to 2 distinct examiners, ensuring that each matter is reviewed by a different person. These examiners are located in 2 distinct art units, indicating a spread across different technical groups within the patent office.
The busiest examiner, KEFAYATI, SOORENA, is responsible for 1 pending office action. This represents half of the 2 pending office actions currently active for the company. With 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units involved, the company's current prosecution is distributed across multiple points of contact. This requires a strategy that accounts for the different technical standards and examiner styles present in each of the two art units.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 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.
