SFC Co., Ltd. has 22 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The record spans 18 distinct examiners and 9 distinct art units, showing a broad examination footprint across the portfolio. That distribution supports centralized docket oversight, but it also requires application-level tracking of claim issues, interview opportunities, and response deadlines.
CHANDHOK, JENNA N is the busiest examiner, with 3 pending matters. The concentration is material within the portfolio, although the pending record remains distributed across the other examiner and art-unit assignments. Counsel should therefore combine examiner-specific preparation with consistent technical positions for related matters.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 3 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 3 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 5 (24%) |
| §112 only | 1 (5%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (5%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 14 (67%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
Manual office-action response work runs about 10 hours per case. The time-saved bands below show what IP Author's prosecution pipeline typically delivers — a conservative 20% on the low end, 35% in the middle, 50% on the high end.
