Workhorse Group Inc. has 5 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The matters involve 5 distinct examiners and 4 distinct art units, indicating separate examiner assignments with limited art-unit overlap.
KINGSLAND, KYLE J is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The portfolio therefore calls for application-specific response planning while tracking the shared art-unit structure.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 2 (40%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (20%) |
