Prime World International Holdings Ltd. has 3 pending office actions in the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. These actions are distributed among 2 distinct examiners, all within 1 distinct art unit. This concentration in the 1 distinct art unit suggests a consistent technological focus for the pending matters, even as they are split between different examiners. The 3 pending office actions are being reviewed within a single departmental framework, which may lead to more uniform application of prior art.
RAHLL, JERRY T is the busiest examiner, managing 2 pending office actions. This means that a majority of the company's active prosecution is being handled by a single individual. For practitioners, this concentration provides an opportunity to apply insights from 1 of RAHLL, JERRY T's cases to the other. However, the presence of 2 distinct examiners overall means that the remaining pending action will still require a separate tactical approach. The applicant can focus on the specific guidelines of the single unit assigned to the case within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics field.
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.
