Shilla Industrial Co. Ltd. has 1 pending office action within the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. This single action is being handled by examiner Gregory T. Prather in 1 distinct art unit. As the only examiner currently reviewing the company's work, Gregory T. Prather is the busiest examiner with 1 pending action. The prosecution profile is currently limited to this single point of contact at the patent office.
Because the portfolio consists of only 1 pending office action and 1 distinct examiner, the company's immediate success at the patent office depends entirely on this single interaction. There is no broader data available to suggest a wider filing trend or a more diverse examiner pool. Practitioners should focus exclusively on the specific technical requirements of the assigned art unit and the individual preferences of Gregory T. Prather. This focused profile suggests a highly targeted approach to patent protection within their specific technology area.
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.
