Shine Technologies LLC manages 5 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These actions are distributed among 5 distinct examiners, which limits the influence of any individual examiner on the overall portfolio.
The company's applications are reviewed across 4 distinct art units, indicating a variety of mechanical or e-commerce classifications. Chih Cheng G Kao is the busiest examiner for the firm, currently overseeing 1 pending office action. This spread across 5 examiners ensures that the company's legal strategy must account for multiple examination styles.
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.
