Qromis Inc. currently manages 1 pending office action within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. This matter is assigned to 1 distinct examiner working in 1 distinct art unit. PARENDO, KEVIN A is the busiest examiner for this portfolio, holding 1 pending office action. The concentration of the portfolio under this 1 distinct examiner suggests a focused prosecution effort for the company's current intellectual property.
Because the portfolio involves 1 distinct examiner and 1 distinct art unit, the company's success at the USPTO is currently tied to the interpretation of KEVIN A PARENDO. There is no opportunity to compare different examiner behaviors within the company's own data, as all activity is limited to this 1 distinct examiner. The 1 distinct art unit involved indicates that the technology being pursued fits within a specific technical group. Practitioners should focus on the specific history and preferences of KEVIN A PARENDO to navigate this prosecution path.
The Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area often involves complex electronic systems, and having 1 pending office action suggests a controlled filing approach. This singular focus allows for a dedicated response to the examiner's concerns but lacks the broader context that a larger number of actions would provide. As the company continues its work, the prosecution landscape may change, but it currently remains centralized under 1 pending office action.
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.
