TAKASAGO INTERNATIONAL Corporation has 9 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The matters involve 9 examiners across 7 art units, showing broad examiner distribution with some concentration at the art-unit level.
DUBOIS, PHILIP A is the busiest examiner with 1 pending matter. A centralized review of chemistry and materials terminology can improve consistency, but the dispersed examiner assignments require matter-specific response planning and prior-art analysis.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 2 (20%) |
| §103 only | 3 (30%) |
| §102 only | 2 (20%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (30%) |
