Sion Power Corporation has 5 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The portfolio reaches 5 examiners across 4 art units, showing that prosecution is distributed across multiple examination channels rather than confined to one reviewing group.
WEI, YVONNE is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Because the busiest examiner accounts for only 1 of the pending matters, counsel should avoid treating that examiner as the sole point of coordination.
The spread across 4 art units calls for matter-level tracking of claim scope, cited references, and response deadlines. Consistent technical positions can still be maintained, but each art-unit context may require a distinct prosecution approach.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 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.
