The busiest examiner for this portfolio is KENNY, DANIEL J, who is responsible for 1 pending office action. This count of 1 pending office action for the busiest examiner is part of the total 2 pending office actions.

This requires a strategy that accounts for the requirements of the 2 distinct examiners across the 2 distinct art units.
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.
