Progressive Ip Limited is currently handling 1 pending office action within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. This matter involves 1 distinct examiner and is being processed in 1 distinct art unit. The applicant's current prosecution activity is limited to this single interaction, representing a highly concentrated docket.
The busiest examiner for this portfolio is TRAN, JULIA C, who is responsible for 1 pending office action. Given that the busiest examiner pending count is 1, the examiner is not currently reviewing multiple cases for this applicant. This allows for a focused prosecution strategy that addresses the specific concerns of this individual examiner and the standards of the 1 distinct art unit involved.
The presence of only 1 pending office action indicates a low level of current conflict or activity with the USPTO. Because the 1 distinct examiner and 1 distinct art unit are the only entities involved in the pending workload, the practitioner can focus exclusively on the technical and legal requirements of this case. This structure avoids the complexities of managing a larger portfolio across the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems field.
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.
