Schneider Electric Buildings Americas Inc. manages 3 pending office actions within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. These matters are assigned to 3 distinct examiners, with each examiner handling exactly one case. The portfolio's activity is spread across 3 distinct art units, showing a one-to-one-to-one relationship between actions, examiners, and art units. CAVALLARI, DANIEL is the busiest examiner for the company, currently managing 1 pending action.
This distribution indicates a highly diversified prosecution landscape despite the small number of pending cases. The 3 pending office actions suggest a focused but technically varied set of filings. Having 3 distinct art units for the actions means that each matter falls into a different technical category. This requires the company to navigate different sets of art unit norms and examiner styles. The distinct examiners involved mean that no single individual has a broad influence over the company's current pending claims. Practitioners should tailor their approach to the specific requirements of each of the art units.
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.
