SK Enpulse Co. Ltd. has 2 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The matters are distributed across 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units, creating a broader prosecution-management requirement. ZAWORSKI, JONATHAN R is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter.
The profile indicates that counsel must coordinate responses across separate examination settings rather than rely on one uniform examiner approach. Claim terminology and technical arguments should remain consistent where the matters share relevant subject matter, while each response addresses its assigned art-unit context. The identified examiner handles 1 pending matter, with the other matter assigned to a different examiner.
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.
