Valeo Powertrain (Nanjing) Co. Ltd. has 1 pending office action focused in the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. This workload is handled by 1 distinct examiner, which centralizes the company's current patent examination experience. The concentration in 1 distinct art unit reflects a narrow technical scope for the pending matters currently under review at the patent office. For a practitioner, this means the prosecution strategy does not currently need to account for varying standards across different administrative groups.
PERKINS, THEODORE L is identified as the busiest examiner, holding 1 busiest examiner pending action. This single action accounts for the total 1 pending office action for the company, meaning the prosecution strategy currently depends on the feedback from this individual. With only 1 distinct examiner involved, the company lacks diversity in examiner perspectives across its current pending semiconductor and optics portfolio. The 1 distinct art unit serves as the sole focal point for the company's active engagement with the patent office.
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.
