Shenzhen Edge Medical Co. Ltd.’s portfolio is in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering and has 3 pending office actions. The matters are assigned to 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units, showing that each pending matter is distributed across a separate examination channel in the available record. Counsel should manage the actions individually and monitor whether technical themes recur.
LOUIS, RICHARD G is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The other pending matters are associated with different examiners and art units, so this assignment does not represent the entire prosecution record. A coordinated strategy should preserve consistent device terminology while tailoring arguments and amendments to each examination context.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (33%) |
| §102 only | 1 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (33%) |
