UNIVAR SOLUTIONS LLC is currently managing 1 pending office action in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. This action is assigned to MCNALLY, DANIEL, who is the busiest examiner for the portfolio. The prosecution is occurring within a distinct art unit, suggesting a focused technical review. This concentration in both examiner and art unit simplifies the current prosecution tracking for the company.
With the busiest examiner pending action count also at 1, the company's current activity is entirely dependent on the review of MCNALLY, DANIEL. The placement of the case in the distinct art unit indicates that the Chemistry & Materials innovation is being evaluated by a specific specialized group. Because there is a distinct examiner for the pending office action, the company can focus its legal resources on a point of contact at the patent office. This focus allows for direct management of the company's intellectual property interests in the Chemistry & Materials field.
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.
