Zhejiang Dahua Technology Co., Ltd. has 7 pending office actions in Computing & Software. The matters are assigned to 7 distinct examiners and 7 distinct art units, giving each reported matter a separate examination path.
LOTFI, KYLE M is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. The docket shows no examiner concentration. Counsel should use matter-specific claim analysis and the individual art-unit context for each 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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 4 (57%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (43%) |
