Usi Science And Technology (Shenzhen) Co. Ltd. currently manages 1 pending office action within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. This matter is assigned to 1 distinct art unit. The prosecution involves the distinct examiner MELLINGER, CORBYN DAVID, who is also the busiest examiner in the portfolio. The busiest examiner is responsible for the pending office action. This concentrated workload suggests a focused prosecution effort where current activity is handled by the examiner and art unit identified.
The focus within Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics ensures that the examiner is reviewing content within a specific technical domain. Practitioners managing this portfolio can focus their resources on the specific examiner preferences and art unit trends. This direct alignment between the examiner and the pending matter simplifies the coordination of responses. The absence of multiple pending actions across different units reduces the complexity of maintaining consistent arguments across the portfolio. The examiner MELLINGER, CORBYN DAVID maintains a central role in the current prosecution cycle for the company. The alignment of the pending action within the art unit suggests a narrow technical focus for the current patenting activity.
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.
