Zhejiang Brilliant Optoelectronic Technology Co. Ltd. has 2 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The matters involve 2 examiners within 1 art unit, combining examiner-specific handling with a shared art unit setting.
SIMBANA, RACHEL A is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The common art unit may inform technical review, but each examiner’s record should guide its response.
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 | 1 (50%) |
