The presence of only 1 pending office action indicates a very focused prosecution stage for the company. Because the case is handled by 1 distinct examiner in 1 distinct art unit, the applicant can concentrate all legal efforts on the specific requirements of CUTLER, ALBERT H. This 1 to 1 relationship between the pending matter and the examiner allows for a streamlined communication process. Practitioners should focus on the technical standards of the Communications area as applied by this single examiner.
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.
