BODYFRIEND CO., LTD. has 11 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The portfolio includes 10 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units. DAHER, KIRA B is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending matters.
The portfolio combines substantial pending activity with repeated examiner assignment and a smaller number of art-unit settings. This creates both coordination opportunities and risks. Shared art-unit context may support consistent technical framing, while different examiners may apply different approaches to device structure, function, and prior art.
DAHER, KIRA B handles 2 pending matters, making that examiner the clearest concentration point in the available record. Counsel should review those matters together for consistency, while maintaining application-specific responses across the remaining examiners. A central claim chart and disclosure map can help preserve coherent scope without treating all actions as interchangeable.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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 | 6 (55%) |
| §103 only | 1 (9%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (36%) |
