Watershed Geosynthetics LLC has 3 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The matters involve 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units, so the available assignments do not show examiner or art-unit overlap.
HAWN, PATRICK D is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The docket is divided among the identified matters. Counsel can use matter-specific response planning, while checking each art-unit assignment independently for its applicable examination issues.
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.
