Pro3Dure Medical GmbH has 1 pending office action within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. Because there is only 1 distinct examiner and 1 distinct art unit involved, the company's current interactions with the patent office are centralized. Practitioners should note that the portfolio's immediate trajectory depends on the results of this specific examination. This lack of diversification across different art units or examiners means that the specific preferences and historical trends of BROWN, SETH RICHARD will be the primary factor in the company's near-term prosecution outcomes.
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.
