Vissers Battery Corporation is a company patent portfolio with 2 pending office actions. These actions are located within the Chemistry & Materials technology area. The prosecution of these matters is distributed between 2 distinct examiners. This distribution indicates that the portfolio is not under the review of only 1 individual. The data shows that 2 distinct art units are involved in the examination of these 2 pending office actions.
ORLANDO, MICHAEL N is the busiest examiner for this portfolio, with 1 pending office action. This 1 pending action for the busiest examiner is a portion of the 2 total pending office actions for the company. Because there are 2 distinct examiners for 2 actions, each examiner is handling a different matter. The involvement of 2 distinct art units suggests that the technical subject matter is being evaluated by different specialized groups within the patent office.
For the practitioner, this means that the 2 distinct examiners likely follow different art unit guidelines. The prosecution strategy must account for the specific prior art and technical standards recognized by 2 different art units. Having 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units allows for a variety of perspectives on the Chemistry & Materials filings, as they are spread across different technical departments.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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.
