3 pending office actions • 2 art units • 3 examiners • 0 of 3 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 1 patents granted in the last 365 days
Shinryo Corporation currently has 3 pending office actions within the Chemistry & Materials technology area. These actions are assigned to 2 distinct art units, indicating some technical overlap in the company's current patent applications. The prosecution involves 3 distinct examiners, meaning that each of the pending office actions is being reviewed by a different person at the patent office.
PHILLIPS, SAVANNAH GRACE is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, currently managing 1 pending office action. This reflects an even distribution of the workload across the distinct examiners. While the work is spread among multiple examiners, the concentration in the 2 distinct art units suggests that the subject matter remains relatively focused within the broader Chemistry & Materials field. Practitioners should be prepared for unique examiner feedback on each of the active matters.
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.
