Universal Robots A/S has 6 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The matters are assigned to 6 examiners and 4 art units, indicating that examiner assignments are fully dispersed even though some matters share technical groupings.
DOROS, KAYLA RENEE is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Since the busiest assignment does not exceed that figure, prosecution planning is better organized by application and art unit than by a dominant examiner relationship.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 5 (83%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (17%) |
