Sococo LLC currently has 2 pending office actions in the Computing & Software technology area. These 2 actions are assigned to 2 distinct examiners, resulting in a 1 to 1 ratio where each active case is handled by a different person. This distribution requires the company to address 2 different examiner styles for its 2 pending matters. UDDIN, MD I is the busiest examiner, currently overseeing 1 pending action.
The 2 pending office actions are both located within 1 distinct art unit, which suggests a focused technical scope for the company's current active matters. With 2 distinct examiners operating in 1 art unit, the company faces different individual preferences but a consistent set of art unit standards. Since UDDIN, MD I only handles 1 pending action, he is responsible for 1 of the 2 active office actions. Practitioners should focus on the specific requirements of this 1 art unit while tailoring their responses to the individual feedback of the 2 examiners involved to advance these matters. This concentration in 1 art unit provides a stable regulatory environment for the 2 pending actions.
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.
