Reinz-Dichtungs-GmbH has 7 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. Those matters are distributed among 7 distinct examiners and 6 distinct art units, indicating that the portfolio’s prosecution activity spans multiple examination assignments rather than concentrating in one unit.
The busiest examiner is JEBUTU, MOFOLUWASO SIMILOLUWA, with 1 pending action. Because that examiner accounts for only 1 of the pending matters, the available data points toward a dispersed docket. Counsel should therefore track examiner-specific practice across the portfolio and avoid treating one examiner’s approach as representative of every matter.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (17%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 5 (83%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
