Xtend Reality Expansion Ltd. has 3 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These actions are handled by 3 distinct examiners across the same number of distinct art units. This distribution indicates that each pending application is being reviewed in a unique technical environment. There is no overlap between the examiners or the art units for the current workload.
GREENE, DANIEL LAWSON is the busiest examiner with 1 busiest examiner pending action. Since there are distinct examiners for the 3 pending office actions, each examiner is managing a single case. The diversity of art units for these actions suggests the company is pursuing protection for several distinct mechanical or system-related inventions. This requires a prosecution strategy that can address the specific requirements of different technical groups. Each distinct examiner will likely have a different approach to the examination process, necessitating a customized response for each of the pending office actions.
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.
