Tamko Building Products LLC’s portfolio concerns Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering and has 2 pending office actions. The matters are assigned to 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units, showing that the pending work is divided across separate examination channels. Counsel should keep each action’s claim analysis distinct while coordinating terminology and technical positions where appropriate.
MACEDA, KRYSTENE NHE BANDONG is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The examiner handles one portion of the record, while another examiner and art unit handle the remaining matter. A practical prosecution plan should combine centralized docket control with responses tailored to each device and mechanical-engineering examination record.
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.
