Platinum Optics Technology Inc. has 5 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The matters are assigned to 3 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units, creating a multi-matter docket with repeated examiner and art-unit involvement.
SIPES, JOHN CURTIS is the busiest examiner, with 3 pending actions. This examiner holds the most concentrated portion of the docket, so coordinated claim and response review may be useful for those matters.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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.
