Toyota Tsusho Corporation is managing 3 pending office actions in the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. These actions are spread across distinct examiners and the distinct art units. There are 3 distinct examiners involved in the cases.
The busiest examiner is MALEVIC, DJURA, who is responsible for 1 pending office action. Each examiner handles 1 action.
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 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (67%) |
