Analysis

Schreiner Group GmbH & Co. Kg operates within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area, currently managing 3 pending office actions. This workload is distributed across 3 distinct examiners, which indicates that each pending matter is being evaluated by a different individual. The prosecution activity is further spread across 3 distinct art units, suggesting that the company's technical filings cover several specialized classifications within the semiconductor field.

The busiest examiner for the portfolio is PHAN, THO GIA, who is responsible for 1 pending office action. This distribution shows that no single examiner holds a majority of the company's active cases, reducing the risk associated with any individual examiner's specific tendencies. For patent practitioners, this variety across examiners and art units necessitates a flexible approach to prosecution, as each matter will likely face different procedural expectations. The alignment between the number of pending actions and distinct examiners highlights a highly decentralized prosecution environment for the current portfolio.
