Rimac Technology LLC has 4 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The matters are assigned to 4 distinct examiners and 4 distinct art units, so each pending matter follows a separate examination path.
LO, KENNETH M is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The profile does not show examiner or art-unit concentration, making matter-specific preparation the appropriate approach for counsel.
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 | 2 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (50%) |
