Strata Manufacturing Pjsc currently manages 1 pending office action within the Chemistry & Materials technology area. This 1 pending office action is assigned to 1 distinct examiner, PENCE, JETHRO M. The prosecution activity is concentrated in 1 distinct art unit. PENCE, JETHRO M is identified as the busiest examiner for this portfolio, holding 1 busiest examiner pending action.
This focused distribution suggests a specific patenting effort where 1 distinct examiner at the USPTO handles the current workload. Practitioners can expect a streamlined communication path given the lack of examiner or art unit diversity in the current pending queue. The concentration in 1 distinct art unit implies that the subject matter is tightly grouped within the Chemistry & Materials field. Because only 1 distinct examiner is involved, the applicant can focus their strategy on the specific preferences and historical patterns of PENCE, JETHRO M. This lack of variety in the pending portfolio simplifies the management of deadlines and responses. The presence of 1 busiest examiner pending action confirms that the entire pending workload is currently under the review of a single individual.
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.
