Wonik Pne Co. Ltd. has 2 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The matters involve 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units, indicating that the portfolio is divided across separate examination assignments.
HONG, SEAHEE is the busiest examiner and is handling 1 pending matter. Counsel should address the matters independently while checking whether the separate art-unit treatment creates consistent claim construction or response opportunities.
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.
