SAMYANG Corporation has 10 pending office actions in Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals. The matters are assigned to 10 distinct examiners across 7 distinct art units, indicating complete examiner dispersion and moderate concentration among technical units.
TRAN, LIEN THUY is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. No examiner carries multiple active matters, so prosecution planning should focus on consistent portfolio positions while addressing each examination relationship separately.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 3 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 3 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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 (20%) |
| §102 only | 1 (10%) |
| §112 only | 3 (30%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (10%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (30%) |
