SG Gaming Inc. holds a company patent portfolio in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. The portfolio currently has 1 pending office action, which serves as the primary focus of the company's active legal efforts at the patent office. This single action is under the review of 1 distinct examiner, GLENN, CHRISTOPHER A. As the busiest examiner for the portfolio, GLENN, CHRISTOPHER A. is tasked with 1 busiest examiner pending action, which accounts for the total volume of the company's current prosecution.
The prosecution is conducted within 1 distinct art unit, reflecting a narrow technical specialization for the company's pending intellectual property. For a practitioner, this concentration indicates that the success of the 1 pending office action is tied to the specific examination standards of a single art unit and the individual judgment of GLENN, CHRISTOPHER A. There is no examiner or art unit variety to mitigate the impact of this single point of review. The 1 distinct examiner and 1 distinct art unit together define the entire landscape for the company's current interaction with the patent office regarding its pending office action.
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.
