ZKW Group GmbH has 2 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The matters are distributed across 2 examiners and 2 art units, so the portfolio presents separate examination channels rather than concentration in one unit.
CHAN, WEI is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Because the busiest examiner accounts for only 1 of the pending office actions, prosecution attention is not centered on a single examiner. Counsel can therefore track both examiner and art-unit developments independently.
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.
