ROE, JESSEE RANDALL is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Counsel should prepare responses independently while reviewing both matters for related chemistry or materials issues that might support consistent terminology or amendment positions.
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.
