Wireman Pty Limited is currently managing 3 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These 3 actions are assigned to 3 distinct examiners, creating a direct ratio of examiners to pending matters. This distribution indicates that the company's active filings are being processed independently by different individuals, which can lead to varying prosecution timelines across the portfolio. The lack of examiner overlap prevents the applicant from leveraging consistent behavior across their mechanical filings.
The active matters are located within 2 distinct art units, suggesting a technical divergence in the company's mechanical filings. SKROUPA, JOSHUA A is the busiest examiner, holding 1 pending office action. With a busiest examiner pending count of 1, the workload is evenly distributed. This lack of concentration means that the company's overall prosecution success is not overly dependent on the tendencies of any single examiner. The involvement of 2 distinct art units further indicates that these matters are being evaluated under different technical standards and supervisory groups.
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 |
|---|---|
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (100%) |
