Zhuhai Pantum Electronics Co., Ltd. manages a portfolio in the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area with 11 pending office actions. These 11 pending office actions are distributed across 8 distinct art units. This distribution indicates that the company's filings are reviewed by multiple specialized groups. The prosecution involves 10 distinct examiners.
AYDIN, SEVAN A is the busiest examiner for this portfolio, currently overseeing 2 busiest examiner pending office actions. These 2 busiest examiner pending office actions are a part of the total workload. The number of 10 distinct examiners is higher than the 8 distinct art units, which means some art units have multiple examiners assigned to the company's cases. The Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area is the primary focus for these matters.
Practitioners should observe that AYDIN, SEVAN A manages a portion of the pending office actions. With 8 distinct art units involved, the company's intellectual property strategy is spread across several technical niches within the patent office. The involvement of 10 distinct examiners suggests that the company must navigate a variety of individual examiner perspectives.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 3 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 3 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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 | 1 (8%) |
| §103 only | 4 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 7 (58%) |
