P T Rom And Associates LLC is currently managing 1 pending office action within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. This matter is assigned to 1 distinct examiner. All prosecution activity for the company is concentrated in 1 distinct art unit. This indicates a very narrow and focused interaction with the patent office, with all active legal work centered on a single technical classification.
LOAN B JIMENEZ is the busiest examiner for this portfolio, overseeing 1 pending office action. Since there is only 1 pending action in total, this examiner handles the entirety of the active office action workload. This results in a highly centralized prosecution environment. For the applicant, this means that the progression of their current patent filings depends on the review of this 1 examiner. The alignment of 1 examiner and 1 art unit for 1 action simplifies the points of contact required for the company's active matters.
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.
