Pcnc Co. Ltd. has 1 pending office action in the Computing & Software technology area. This action is assigned to 1 distinct examiner, BLAUFELD, JUSTIN R. The company's current prosecution efforts are concentrated on this case and the specific feedback from this examiner. This creates a high-stakes environment for the applicant, as the outcome of their current patent office activity depends entirely on the interactions with this specific examiner. There are no other pending matters to provide a buffer or alternative path for intellectual property development for the 1 pending matter.
The activity is located within a single distinct art unit, reflecting the focused nature of the pending matter. BLAUFELD, JUSTIN R is the busiest examiner for the company. With only the total pending action, the immediate outcome of the company's patenting activity depends on the progress of this application. Practitioners should carefully review the examiner's history within this 1 art unit to anticipate potential hurdles. The singular focus on this art unit suggests a very specific technical niche for the company's current software-related intellectual property efforts.
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.
