Analysis

Terabase Energy Inc. has 5 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The matters are assigned to 5 distinct examiners and 5 distinct art units, showing a fully distributed examination profile. A coordinated technical vocabulary may support portfolio consistency, but prosecution decisions should remain responsive to the separate art-unit assignments and application records.

STERLING, AMY JO is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The identified examiner does not represent a concentrated part of the docket, so counsel should not rely on one examiner interaction to guide all responses. Claims involving mechanical or transportation implementations should be mapped carefully to the relevant disclosure and to the specific issues raised in each matter.
