The Red Queen’s Race
Jul. 19th, 2024 08:01 pmI presume that I still have one amendment on my Amended docket; I’m not sure, because I have been unable to use my workstation today.
I finished an Office Action on a Special New case this week, but was unable to post it because something else had to be taken care of first, so I did some work on the single case on my Amended docket Thursday. When I came in to work Friday morning, I saw the blue screen of death because of CloudStrike, so I couldn’t finish writing that Office Action.
For a while, I couldn’t do anything except hang around, read the newspaper, and do the Friday sudoku puzzle; then a supervisor whose computer was working was able to print some papers for me; others were already printed. I was therefore able to read printed prior art patents and non-patent literature articles, and compare them to the printed claims in my oldest Regular New case, which came with an Information Disclosure Statement listing documents to consider. So I have been doing some work, even without access to a working work computer to work on.
