Reflexion Interactive Technologies Inc. manages 2 pending office actions within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These actions are split between 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. This distribution indicates that even with a small number of pending cases, the portfolio is being reviewed across different specialized groups. The involvement of 2 distinct art units suggests that the company's interactive medical technologies span multiple technical classifications within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering field.
COOPER, JONATHAN EPHRAIM is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending office action. Since there are 2 pending office actions and 2 distinct examiners, each examiner is responsible for 1 case. This requires the applicant to manage 2 separate prosecution tracks, each with its own examiner and art unit, despite the shared technology area. Practitioners must tailor their arguments to the specific preferences of both COOPER, JONATHAN EPHRAIM and the other assigned examiner. The lack of overlap between examiners and art units means that successful outcomes in 1 case may not provide a direct roadmap for the other.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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.
