Rheacell GmbH & Co. Kg has 3 pending office actions in the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals technology area. These actions are distributed among 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units. This arrangement indicates that each of the 3 pending matters is being reviewed in a separate technical and personnel environment, ensuring that no single examiner dominates the company's current prosecution activity.
GORDON, BRIAN R is the busiest examiner for this portfolio. This examiner is managing 1 pending office action, while the other pending actions are handled by different examiners. With the 3 pending office actions split equally among the distinct examiners, practitioners must develop individualized strategies for each case. The lack of overlap between the 3 distinct art units means that the prosecution of each application will likely be influenced by the specific departmental standards and examiner preferences unique to each matter.
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 |
|---|---|
| §112 only | 1 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (50%) |
