Sanan Japan Technology Corporation has 4 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The matters are handled by OUTTEN, SAMUEL S and fall within a single art unit.
The portfolio therefore presents a concentrated prosecution environment. Responses can be coordinated around one examiner and one art-unit context, which may support consistent claim amendments and arguments across the pending matters.
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.
