Seabubbles has 1 pending office action located in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. Prosecution is handled by 1 distinct examiner working within 1 distinct art unit. This structure shows that the company's current patent activity is confined to a single point of contact within the patent office, rather than being spread across multiple departments. Such a centralized arrangement can simplify the management of the portfolio, as it requires monitoring only 1 examination timeline and maintaining a relationship with a single art unit.
CHAN, KEVIN is identified as the busiest examiner for the portfolio, with 1 pending office action under review. This 1 pending action accounts for all current activity for Seabubbles. The alignment between the 1 distinct examiner and the 1 pending office action confirms that no examiner in this portfolio is currently managing more than 1 active case for the company. For the applicant, this indicates that the examiner's attention is not divided among multiple competing applications from the same entity, potentially allowing for a more focused dialogue during the prosecution process.
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.
