This structure supports coordination of the technical and claim strategy, while still requiring separate responses to the examiners’ individual analyses. Counsel should compare the claim language, cited art, and objections in both actions before filing amendments. A common device explanation may be useful, but each response should preserve a clear record of how the assigned examiner’s concerns are being addressed.
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.
