Safe Rack LLC has 3 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These actions are distributed across 2 distinct art units, suggesting some technical overlap.
The portfolio involves 3 distinct examiners, so each pending action is assigned to a different person. MENEZES, MARCUS is the busiest examiner with 1 pending office action. This represents a portion of the 3 total pending actions for the company. The 2 art units handle all current matters, and each examiner manages 1 action.
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.
