Rexnord Flattop Europe B V currently has 3 pending office actions within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These actions are being reviewed by 2 distinct examiners, with JORGENSEN, ABBY A serving as the busiest examiner by managing 2 pending actions. The other pending action is handled by the other distinct examiner involved in the portfolio.
All 3 pending office actions are concentrated within 1 distinct art unit. This indicates a high degree of administrative consistency, as all current matters are being processed through the same organizational division of the patent office. With JORGENSEN, ABBY A handling 2 of the 3 actions, the company's prosecution experience in this technology area is largely influenced by a single individual's review within that specific art unit.
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.
