Sophoxy LLC is managing 1 pending office action in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. This action is assigned to a single distinct examiner, SAHAND, SANA, who is the busiest examiner for the portfolio. The prosecution is currently concentrated in a single technical division of the patent office. This focused administrative structure reduces the complexity of the prosecution process for the applicant.
The busiest examiner pending count of 1 confirms that SAHAND, SANA is the sole examiner responsible for the company's current pending workload. This individual's specific understanding of the medical device and mechanical engineering systems involved will determine the success of the application. With only a single distinct examiner and art unit, the company can focus its efforts on addressing the specific concerns of a single person. This prosecution profile indicates a very targeted approach to securing patent protection in the medical device sector.
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.
