Xingmai Innovation Technology (Suzhou) Co. Ltd. currently has 5 pending office actions within the Chemistry & Materials technology area. These actions are distributed across 5 distinct examiners and 5 distinct art units. This distribution indicates that every one of the 5 pending office actions is being reviewed by a different examiner in a different administrative group. This level of dispersion means that the company is navigating 5 different sets of examiner preferences and art unit practices simultaneously within the Chemistry & Materials field.
SAENZ, ALBERTO is the busiest examiner for this portfolio. This examiner is responsible for 1 busiest examiner pending office action. Given that there are 5 pending office actions and 5 distinct examiners, the workload is evenly spread across the assigned staff. No single examiner handles more than 1 of the 5 pending office actions. This structure requires the company to manage 5 separate prosecution tracks without the benefit of examiner level consolidation. The involvement of 5 distinct art units further emphasizes the technical variety of the matters currently under review.
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%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (20%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (20%) |
