Packaging Concepts & Design LLC currently manages its patent interests within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. The portfolio contains 1 pending office action, which represents the current focus of the company's active prosecution. This single matter is assigned to 1 distinct examiner, ROHRHOFF, DANIEL J, who is responsible for the review of the technical claims. The prosecution is conducted within a distinct art unit, indicating a specific technical classification for the pending application.
The busiest examiner, ROHRHOFF, DANIEL J, is currently managing the 1 pending office action. This creates a highly concentrated prosecution environment where the immediate outcome of the company's patent strategy depends on the review of a single individual. For practitioners, this concentration suggests that the prosecution approach must be precisely tailored to the specific feedback and requirements of this one examiner. The lack of distribution across multiple examiners or art units indicates a singular path through the examination process, requiring a focused effort to address the specific concerns raised in the transportation and mechanical systems sector.
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.
