Pyramide Usa Inc. has 2 pending office actions in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These actions are distributed across 2 distinct art units and are being reviewed by 2 distinct examiners. URBIEL GOLDNER, GARY D is the busiest examiner for the company, holding 1 pending office action. This means that each of the 2 pending actions is being handled by a different examiner in a different art unit, requiring separate prosecution approaches for each matter. This decentralized structure for the 2 pending actions suggests a diverse technical focus within the medical device sector.
With 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units involved, the company faces two different sets of examiner expectations and art unit standards. This lack of overlap means that progress in one pending office action may not directly influence the other. The presence of 2 distinct art units for only 2 pending actions indicates that the company's medical innovations are being classified into different specialized categories at the USPTO. Practitioners must be prepared to navigate two separate examination paths simultaneously to advance this portfolio.
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 |
|---|---|
| §112 only | 1 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (50%) |
