Secturion Systems Inc. has 2 pending office actions in the Networking & Security technology area. These actions are assigned to 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units, showing no concentration of workload. NIPA, WASIKA is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending office action. This distribution means that each pending matter is being reviewed by a different examiner in a different art unit.
The 2 distinct art units within the Networking & Security field indicate that the company's current filings are technically diverse. With 2 pending office actions and 2 distinct examiners, the company must manage two separate prosecution tracks. NIPA, WASIKA handles 1 of these actions, representing half of the current pending workload.
Practitioners should observe that the workload is evenly distributed across the 2 distinct examiners. There is no central examiner to influence the overall portfolio strategy. The 2 distinct art units suggest that the technical focus of the 2 pending office actions is distinct enough to require different classification areas, meaning prosecution strategies must be tailored to each individual examiner.
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.
