2 pending office actions • 2 art units • 2 examiners • 0 of 2 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Range Energy Inc. has 2 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These actions are assigned to 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. MUHAMMAD SHAFI is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, currently handling 1 pending office action.
The 2 pending office actions are split between 2 distinct examiners, meaning each examiner is responsible for one matter. This distribution indicates that no single examiner is overwhelmed by the company's current filings. The 2 distinct art units suggest that each action is being reviewed within a different technical group. MUHAMMAD SHAFI is one of the two individuals managing the current workload in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems area.
Because the 2 pending office actions are located in 2 distinct art units, the technical focus of the portfolio is divided. The prosecution team must manage relationships with 2 distinct examiners, including MUHAMMAD SHAFI. Each of these 2 distinct examiners handles 1 pending office action. This arrangement requires a strategy that addresses the individual preferences of both examiners while operating across different art units. The 1 pending office action managed by MUHAMMAD SHAFI represents half of the company's active 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.
