Trailer Aerodynamics LLC is managing 2 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These 2 actions are split between 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units, creating a completely distributed prosecution profile for the company. Each pending action is being evaluated independently by a different examiner in a different technical group. This lack of overlap between the 2 pending office actions means that the company cannot rely on a single examiner's previous rulings to predict the outcome of the other case.
CATALANO, JACKSON RICHARD is identified as the busiest examiner, though they are responsible for only 1 pending office action. With 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units involved, the company must address two separate sets of technical and procedural requirements. The prosecution strategy must be tailored to the specific standards of these 2 distinct art units, as there is no central examiner or unit to provide a unified perspective. This distribution requires careful coordination to ensure that arguments made in one action do not negatively impact the other, despite being reviewed by different officials. The company's current workload is small but technically diverse within its primary technology area.
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.
