Roam Robotics Inc. has 5 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The matters span 5 examiners and 4 art units, indicating broad examiner distribution with some art-unit overlap.
JEN, MINGJEN handles 1 pending matter and is the busiest examiner. Because no examiner has a larger recorded concentration, counsel should manage the docket at the application level. The repeated art-unit assignments may support comparisons of claim treatment and technical evidence across matters.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 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.
