3 pending office actions • 1 art units • 2 examiners • 0 of 3 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Red Star Holdings LLC currently has 3 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These actions are handled by 2 distinct examiners, with MORANO IV, SAMUEL J identified as the busiest examiner for the portfolio, holding 2 pending office actions. All pending matters are located within 1 distinct art unit.
The involvement of 2 distinct examiners for the 3 pending office actions suggests a mix of concentrated and distributed prosecution. MORANO IV, SAMUEL J manages 2 pending office actions, allowing the company to develop a more consistent strategy for those matters. The remaining action is handled by a different examiner, requiring the applicant to adapt to their specific style.
The concentration in 1 distinct art unit provides a level of procedural consistency, as both examiners are part of the same technical division. This structure allows the company to apply its understanding of the art unit's specific policies across all pending office actions. Practitioners can focus on the dominant role of MORANO IV, SAMUEL J while managing the additional examiner within the same unit. This arrangement balances individual examiner engagement with a unified technical framework.
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.
