Technology area: Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering
2 pending office actions • 2 art units • 2 examiners • 0 of 2 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Precisis GmbH has 2 pending office actions in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These 2 actions are distributed across 2 distinct examiners, ensuring that each application receives an independent review. The workload is also split between 2 distinct art units, which suggests that the company's applications involve different technical aspects of medical devices. The busiest examiner, SCHLUETER, MARY GRACE, is responsible for 1 pending office action.
Since there are 2 pending office actions and 2 distinct examiners, the busiest examiner pending count of 1 confirms that the workload is evenly spread. This distribution across 2 distinct art units means that the company must navigate different sets of art unit policies and examiner behaviors. Practitioners should be prepared for two separate prosecution paths, as the 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units offer no overlap in the current pending workload. The resolution of these 2 pending office actions will be critical for the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering portfolio.
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.
