Reload Technologies Inc. has 1 pending office action in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. This action is assigned to 1 distinct examiner, KENNEDY, JOSHUA T, who is the busiest examiner with 1 pending office action. The prosecution is focused in 1 distinct art unit. This single application represents the company's current activity, which is entirely under the review of KENNEDY, JOSHUA T.
The assignment of 1 distinct examiner to the 1 pending office action means there is no internal comparison available for examiner behavior within this portfolio. Strategy must be developed around the specific tendencies of KENNEDY, JOSHUA T within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering field. The concentration in 1 distinct art unit suggests a stable procedural framework for this single pending matter.
With 1 pending office action and 1 distinct examiner, the company's prosecution is entirely centralized. This lack of diversity among examiners or art units places a high priority on the specific interactions with KENNEDY, JOSHUA T. Practitioners should note that the 1 distinct art unit will dictate the timelines and administrative requirements for the entirety of the current pending workload.
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.
