ROGERS Corporation has 3 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The matters are assigned to 3 distinct examiners and 2 art units, creating separate examiner paths within a limited technical-unit structure.
BACK, AUSTIN M is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Counsel can coordinate positions across the two units while tailoring responses to each examiner’s semiconductor and circuit examination.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 2 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (50%) |
