Spacefab US Inc. has 1 pending office action in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. This single action is assigned to a distinct examiner, HAUTH, GALEN H, and is located in a distinct art unit. HAUTH, GALEN H is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, with 1 pending office action.
The presence of a distinct art unit for the pending action shows a very focused prosecution effort. With only 1 pending office action in the entire portfolio, the company's current interaction with the patent office is limited to this single examiner. This means that HAUTH, GALEN H is responsible for the review of the company's entire active chemistry and materials patent matter. This centralized structure allows the company to concentrate its resources on a specific technical challenge while navigating the examination process with one primary point of contact.
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.
