Phinia Delphi Luxembourg Sarl has 9 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The matters involve 9 distinct examiners across 4 distinct art units, indicating that prosecution is distributed across several examination assignments rather than concentrated in one unit.
BERTHEAUD, PETER JOHN is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The limited examiner concentration means counsel may need matter-specific prosecution planning, while the art-unit distribution supports tracking claim issues by technical assignment.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (10%) |
| §103 only | 2 (20%) |
| §102 only | 1 (10%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 6 (60%) |
