Thor Tech Inc. is currently managing 7 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These cases are distributed among 7 distinct examiners and 6 distinct art units. This near-total dispersion indicates that almost every application is being reviewed by a different individual in a different technical division. Practitioners must be prepared to navigate 6 distinct art units' specific guidelines while managing 7 separate examiner interactions.
PAIGE, TYLER D is the busiest examiner for the company, with 1 pending office action. With 7 distinct examiners each handling 1 pending office action, the company's prosecution risk is not concentrated in any one individual. The variety of 6 distinct art units suggests a broad range of mechanical and transportation technologies are being patented. Practitioners should coordinate their responses to ensure that the 6 distinct art units receive consistent information. This variety across 7 pending office actions requires a flexible and well-documented prosecution approach to maintain claim consistency across the entire portfolio.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (14%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (14%) |
