Videra Surgical Inc. has 2 pending office actions in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These cases are assigned to 2 distinct examiners across 2 distinct art units. This distribution shows that each pending application is being processed in a separate administrative and technical environment. Practitioners should be prepared to handle 2 different sets of examiner preferences and 2 distinct art unit standards.
CHOI, YOUNHEE JEON is the busiest examiner for the company, currently managing 1 pending office action. With 2 distinct examiners each handling 1 pending office action, the company's prosecution risk is split between two individuals. The involvement of 2 distinct art units suggests that the 2 pending office actions cover different technical aspects of medical devices. Practitioners must implement a customized response for each case to address the specific requirements of the 2 distinct art units. This structure requires a flexible approach to patent advocacy to resolve the active matters effectively.
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.
