The concentration in 1 distinct art unit and under 1 distinct examiner allows for a very consistent prosecution strategy. Practitioners should focus on the specific examination style and previous rulings of MILLER, CHRISTOPHER E. The resolution of the 3 pending office actions will likely be governed by the same set of technical interpretations and administrative standards within this art unit.
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.
