6 pending office actions • 4 art units • 5 examiners • 0 of 6 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Scai Therapeutics Co. Ltd. has 6 pending office actions in Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals. The matters involve 5 distinct examiners and 4 distinct art units. The examiner count exceeds the art-unit count, indicating that at least one art unit includes matters assigned to more than one examiner.
BAEK, BONG-SOOK is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending matters. This creates a limited point of examiner continuity within a broader distribution of assignments, while the remaining matters require separate review.
The portfolio should be managed through both art-unit organization and examiner-specific preparation. The available data does not establish whether the matters share claim language, disclosure, or substantive examination issues.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (17%) |
| §103 only | 1 (17%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 2 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (33%) |
