Shenzhen Plus Innovations Electronics Co. Ltd. currently has 1 pending office action in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. This matter is assigned to a single distinct examiner, ERET C MCNICHOLS, and is located in 1 distinct art unit. The prosecution for this portfolio is currently limited to this active proceeding.
The fact that there is a lone pending matter indicates a very narrow window of active prosecution at this time. ERET C MCNICHOLS is the only individual currently reviewing the company's work. Furthermore, the activity is restricted to a single art unit, which simplifies the procedural landscape for the company's legal representatives.
With the current workload and the sole examiner, the company's immediate success in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems area depends on this specific interaction. The busiest examiner manages all of the company's current workload at the patent office. This focus allows for a deep analysis of the individual's past behavior and the specific division's trends.
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.
