Perazah Inc. has 5 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The matters involve 5 distinct examiners across 3 distinct art units, showing complete examiner dispersion and a more limited art-unit footprint.
MELIKA, ERMIA EMAD is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Counsel should maintain separate response plans for each examiner while comparing the three art-unit assignments for recurring device-related examination issues.
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.
