The portfolio's prosecution involves 1 distinct art unit and 1 distinct examiner.

This concentration simplifies the logistical oversight of the portfolio's intellectual property assets.
UTAMA, ROBERT J is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, holding 1 busiest examiner pending office action. This examiner is responsible for the entirety of the company's pending workload. Prosecution success for the current assets depends on addressing the specific concerns raised by this examiner within the 1 distinct art unit identified.
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.
