Tianma Advanced Display Technology Institute (Xiamen) Co., Ltd. maintains 12 pending office actions in the Communications technology area. These actions are assigned to 12 distinct examiners across 7 distinct art units. SIDDIQUI, MD SAIFUL A is the busiest examiner, currently managing 1 busiest examiner pending action. The 7 distinct art units indicate the technical variety within the company's communications filings.
With 12 distinct examiners for the 12 pending office actions, the workload is perfectly distributed. This means that every pending office action is being reviewed by a different individual, requiring the company to navigate 12 different examiner styles. The 1 busiest examiner pending action assigned to SIDDIQUI, MD SAIFUL A represents a small portion of the 12 pending office actions. Practitioners should focus on the specific preferences of each examiner to ensure successful outcomes.
The 7 distinct art units suggest that the portfolio touches on different specialized groups within the USPTO. Managing the 12 pending office actions across these units requires an understanding of the specific technical standards applied by each group. Because the 12 distinct examiners are spread across 7 distinct art units, there is significant variety in the technical scrutiny applied to the applications. This structure requires a prosecution strategy that accounts for both individual examiner preferences and art unit trends.
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.
