Powercast Corporation currently manages 2 pending office actions within the Communications technology area. These matters are distributed across 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. This distribution indicates that each pending application is being reviewed by a different examiner in a separate administrative unit, which may result in different prosecution timelines or outcomes.
The busiest examiner for the company is MILLER, BRANDON J, who is responsible for 1 pending office action. This accounts for a portion of the 2 pending office actions currently facing the company. The presence of 2 distinct art units suggests that the Communications technology being patented may span different sub-specialties within the patent office's classification system.
With 2 distinct examiners involved, there is no concentration of pending matters under a single authority. MILLER, BRANDON J, handling 1 pending office action, is a contact for the company's current Communications filings. Each of the pending office actions must be addressed according to the specific requirements of its respective examiner and art unit.
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.
