Sri Energy Inc. has 2 pending office actions in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These 2 actions are assigned to 2 distinct examiners, so each pending matter is being reviewed by a different person. Both of these actions are located within 1 distinct art unit, suggesting a unified technical focus for the company's current applications.
BARRY, DAPHNE MARIE is the busiest examiner for the company, managing 1 pending office action. This examiner is responsible for a portion of the company's current pending workload, with the other portion handled by the second distinct examiner. With only 2 actions total, the company's success is split between these two specific officials. The concentration within 1 art unit allows the company to focus its efforts on the specific standards and procedures of that single division at the patent office while managing the 2 distinct examiner relationships.
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.
