       RELATED APPLICATIONS 
       [0002]    N/A 
       BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE 
       [0003]    1. Field of the Disclosure 
         [0004]    The present disclosure relates to improvements in a mobile device carrying case. More particularly, a mobile device case carrying a compact case allowing the mobile device to be utilized while the mobile device case allows to storage or remove some personal items. 
         [0005]    2. Discussion of the Background 
         [0006]    A growing majority of people carry a mobile device on a regular basis. Some people add or buy protective cover or cases in order to offer a protective pouch for the mobile device and, in some cases, a small space is created between the mobile device. The space is used for storing money, cards or the like. These protective cases require the user to remove the mobile device from the case to access the phone and/or the money, cards or the like. They further provide limited space for storage of personal items and the personal items shifts as the user is carrying the case. 
         [0007]    A number of patents have been issued that provide for holding mobile devices covers. Exemplary examples of patents that have been issued that try to address this problem. 
         [0008]    U.S. Pat. No. 7,146,184 issued Dec. 5, 2006 to Tsitsiashvili, discloses a personal communication and cosmetic storage device comprising a housing including personal communication circuitry having a first input portion and a second output portion pivotally connected to one another. At least one cosmetic storage layer is positioned within the first input layer for retaining and storing at least one type of cosmetic therein. The device further includes a means for accessing the at least one cosmetic storage layer. The device is selectively operable in a first mode as a personal communication device and, in a second mode upon accessing the at least one cosmetic storage layer thereby allowing a user to access the stored cosmetic for application thereof. The compartment for the cosmetic storage does not allow for use of the phone while it is using the cosmetic application. This patent also do not include space for storing other personal items. 
         [0009]    U.S. Pat. No. 7,340,238 issued Mar. 4, 2008 to Napier-Clark, discloses a portable personal communications and cosmetics apparatus comprising a base unit having side walls with cavities therein for receiving removable cosmetics products and a mobile phone unit mounted, e.g. removable, on the base unit. The compartment for the cosmetic storage does not provide enough space for personal item or the capacity for changing the cavities dimensions for storing personal items. 
         [0010]    U.S. Publication 2011/0077061 published on Mar. 31, 2011 to Danze et al. discloses the retention of a cell phone to allow for complete functionality of the phone while it is within the case. The phone is cushioned and protected within the case where it is semi-rigidly held. The case further includes an operable back cover where interchangeable trays can be installed where the trays provide a variety of function such as holding makeup, pills, money, credit cards, key(s) or other items a user might normally carry. A dust flap protects migration of makeup into the phone area. The door(s) can open from a variety of methods including hinged, sliding or rotating and be retained closed with magnets or snaps. The opening of the door may also activate an integrated light or alarm. However, the compartment for storage personal items extends over some mobile&#39;s features, such as the camera, that could be damaged by the elements stored at the trays. For example, in case a candy stored at the trays melts it can end up over the camera without the user noticing it. Therefore, it is important to provide chambers separated from some mobile features in order to avoid damages to the structures. 
         [0011]    Therefore, there is a need for providing a mobile device case that allows for full functioning of a mobile device while the mobile device is installed within the case and avoid damages to several mobile device features. Further, the mobile device case includes interchangeable trays for money, credit cards, makeup and the like.
