Schunk SE & Co. Kg Spanntechnik Greiftechnik Automatisierungstechnik has 3 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems sector. The portfolio is perfectly distributed with 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units involved. This one to one ratio between actions, examiners, and art units suggests a diverse set of filings.
ELIZABETH ROSE NELESKI is the busiest examiner with 1 pending action. Because each of the 3 pending office actions is in a different art unit, the company faces a diverse set of examination environments. Practitioners must manage 3 separate prosecution tracks, as there is no overlap between the examiners or the technical groups currently reviewing the applications.
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 |

| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (100%) |
