PerkinElmer Health Sciences, Inc. currently manages 1 pending office action within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. This single action is assigned to 1 distinct examiner and is being reviewed within 1 distinct art unit. This reflects a highly focused point of contact for the company's current patent prosecution efforts.
The busiest examiner for this portfolio is LOGIE, MICHAEL J, who is responsible for 1 busiest examiner pending action. Because the total number of pending office actions is 1, this examiner handles the company's entire current pending workload. The prosecution strategy is therefore centered on the interactions with this 1 distinct examiner and the specific environment of the 1 distinct art unit.
The presence of the pending office action, 1 distinct examiner, and 1 distinct art unit indicates a streamlined examination process for the company's Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics filings. There is no distribution of work across multiple departments or individuals, which allows for a singular focus on the feedback provided by LOGIE, MICHAEL J. This data profile suggests a very specific and contained prosecution landscape at this time.
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.
