Uravu Labs Private Limited currently manages 1 pending office action within the Chemistry & Materials technology area. This single active matter is assigned to 1 distinct examiner working within 1 distinct art unit. The concentration of the portfolio suggests a specific technical focus or an early stage of patent prosecution activity for the company. Practitioners can focus their strategy on the specific procedural tendencies of this single art unit rather than managing multiple disparate requirements.
The busiest examiner for this portfolio is MCKENZIE, THOMAS B, who is responsible for 1 pending office action. Because the total number of pending office actions is 1, this examiner handles the entirety of the company's current workload before the USPTO. The fact that there is 1 distinct examiner for the 1 pending action indicates that the prosecution strategy is currently centralized. Success in the Chemistry & Materials area depends on navigating the specific requirements of MCKENZIE, THOMAS B, as no other examiners are currently reviewing the company's applications. Practitioners should tailor their arguments to this examiner's specific history and preferences.
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.
