Technology area: Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics
2 pending office actions • 2 art units • 2 examiners • 0 of 2 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Toyota Motor Engineering And Manufacturing North America Inc. has two pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The matters are assigned to two examiners and two art units, indicating that the current activity is divided across separate examination channels. LABAZE, EDWYN is the busiest examiner, with one pending matter.
The split assignments call for docket coordination that does not assume a single examiner’s approach will govern both matters. Counsel should review the actions independently and compare technical positions only where the underlying inventions support it. The profile identifies distributed semiconductor, circuit, and optics prosecution rather than a single concentrated examination relationship.
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 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (50%) |
