This distribution shows that no single examiner dominates the company's current prosecution landscape. For a practitioner, this profile indicates a workload where the progress of the portfolio is split between 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units 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.
