Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics France is managing 2 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These actions are distributed across 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units, showing that the 2 pending actions are split across 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. This spread across 2 art units indicates that the company's mechanical systems technology is being reviewed under different technical classifications, requiring a tailored approach for each application.
The busiest examiner, IMMANUEL, BAMIDELE ADEFOLARIN, is responsible for 1 pending office action. Since there are 2 pending actions and 2 distinct examiners, each examiner is handling 1 pending action, resulting in an even distribution of the current workload across the two identified art units. For the practitioner, this means that each pending action involves a unique examiner and art unit combination, necessitating a distinct strategy for each response to the patent office.
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 | 1 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (67%) |
