Pure Safety Group Inc. has 4 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. Each matter is assigned to a distinct examiner and a distinct art unit, showing complete distribution across the profile.
MCDUFFIE, MICHAEL D is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Separate application-level preparation is appropriate because no examiner or art unit supplies a shared prosecution pattern.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (25%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (75%) |
