Purple Mountain Laboratories is managing a patent portfolio in the Networking & Security technology area with 2 pending office actions. This level of activity suggests a targeted effort to protect its networking technologies. The 2 pending actions represent the current workload as the company works to move its applications through the patent office's review process.
The prosecution of these applications involves 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. This means that each of the 2 pending office actions is being handled by a different examiner in a different art unit. Such a distribution requires the company to be prepared for two different examination styles and two sets of art unit-specific practices. With 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units, the company's prosecution strategy must be customized for each individual application to account for these differences.
ROUDANI, OUSSAMA is the busiest examiner for Purple Mountain Laboratories, responsible for 1 pending office action. Because there are 2 pending office actions and 2 distinct examiners, ROUDANI, OUSSAMA handles a portion of the company's current pending work. The remaining action is being reviewed by another examiner. The company's success in the Networking & Security field will depend on its ability to effectively address the specific issues raised by ROUDANI, OUSSAMA and the other examiner involved in the 2 pending matters.
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.
