The ERGO Baby Carrier, Inc. is currently managing 3 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These 3 actions are distributed among 3 distinct examiners. This creates a matching count where each of the 3 pending office actions is reviewed by a different individual. The portfolio is also spread across 3 distinct art units, ensuring that each matter is handled in a separate administrative division.
DAVISON, LAURA L is the busiest examiner, holding 1 pending office action. This confirms that the 3 pending office actions are evenly distributed, as no examiner handles more than 1 action. Because DAVISON, LAURA L is one of 3 distinct examiners each managing a single case, there is no concentration of work with any one person. This decentralized structure across 3 distinct art units suggests that the company's success depends on three independent reviews.
The involvement of 3 distinct art units for 3 actions suggests that the company's Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems innovations are classified into three separate technical groups. With DAVISON, LAURA L and the other examiners each managing 1 action, the prosecution is highly varied. This variety in examiners and art units indicates that the 3 pending office actions involve different technical or administrative reviews within the field.
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.
