Wika Alexander Wiegand SE & Co. Kg operates in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics with 3 pending office actions. These actions are spread across 3 distinct art units. This indicates that the company's sensor or semiconductor technology is being evaluated across several different technical classifications, requiring a broad prosecution strategy.
There are 3 distinct examiners involved in the portfolio. OLAMIT, JUSTIN N is the busiest, currently handling 1 pending office action. The use of 3 different examiners for the pending actions suggests that each case is being reviewed by a different individual. This distribution means the company must manage three separate examiner relationships simultaneously.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (50%) |
