Pursnsnt to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 33, plaintiff; McKesson Information Solutions LLC ("McKesson"), objects and responds as follows to the First Set of
Interrogatories by defendant, The TriZetto Group, Inc. ("TriZetto").
GENERAL OBJECTIONS
McKesson makes the following General Objections, whether or not separately set forth in response to each interrogatory, to each and every instruction, definition, and
question posed in the interrogatories:
1.
McKesson objects generally to interrogatories 1 through 20, inclusive,
insofar as they seek production of documents or information protected by the attorney-
client privilege, the work product inmiunity doctrine, or other privileges. Such
documents or information shall not be produced in response to any interrogatory, and any inadvertent production thereof shall not be deemed a waiver of any privilege with respect to such documents or information, or of any work product immunity doctrine or other

INTERROGATORY NO.6:
For each asserted claim of the '164 PATENT, describe any disclosures of the subject matter thereof prior to the date on which the application for the '164 PATENT was filed (including but not limited to, all prior written publications, all sales, all offers to sell, and/or public uses of any product or system embodying or practicing any claimed invention of the '164 PATENT, the dates of any such disclosures, sales, offers for sale and/or public uses, an identification of the products or systems sold, offered for sale and/or publicly used, and an identification of the PERSONS involved in the disclosure, sale, offer, and/or public use and all documents relating thereto).
RESPONSE TO INTERROGATORY NO.6:
Subject to and without waiving its previously stated General Objections, McKesson states the following Specific Objections to this interrogatory: McKesson objects to this interrogatory as vague and ambiguous, particularly with
respect to the phrases "relating thereto" and "subject matter thereof." McKesson further
objects to this interrogatory as overbroad and unduly burdensome to the extent it seeks
information regarding the disclosure of any portion of the '164 patent or its claims. Such information could encompass, inter alia, every prior disclosure of a "computer system" or a "database." McKesson further objects to this interrogatory as overbroad and unduly burdensome to the extent it seeks information not within McKesson's possession,
custody, or control. With respect to other parties' activities, the Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure do not require McKesson to perform TriZetto's pre-trial investigation.
McKesson further objects to this interrogatory as overbroad and unduly burdensome to the extent it seeks documents and/or information regarding any disclosure by the named inventors or HPR, Inc. after September 30, 1987, as such information does not constitute
prior art to the claims of the '164 patent. McKesson further objects to this interrogatory
as compound and having multiple subparts. McKesson further objects to this
11
Case 1:04-cv-01258-SLR
Document 424-10
Filed 06/22/2006
Page 16 of 36
interrogatory to the extent that it seeks information protected by the attorney-client privilege, the work product immunity doctrine, or other privileges.
-
Subject to and without waiving the foregoing objections, McKesson responds to
this interrogatory as follows: Neither TriZetto nor any third-party have identified a disclosure, publication, sale, offer for sale, or public use that invalidates any claim of the '164 patent and McKesson is not aware of any such disclosure, publication, sale, offer for
sale, or public use. To McKesson's knowledge, consistent with their obligation under 37
C.F.R. § 1.56, the inventors and prosecuting attorneys disclosed all material prior art of
which they were aware to the United States Patent and Trademark Office during the
prosecution of the '164 patent. Those prior art references are identified in the prosecution history of the '164 patent, a copy of which McKesson has produced to TriZetto. McKesson's investigation into information responsive to this interrogatory is
ongoing and McKesson reserves the right to supplement this response as discovery
continues or as circumstances otherwise warrant.
INTERROGATORY NO.7:
IDENTIFY each product or system ever made, sold, or licensed by YOU, by YOUR predecessor-in-interest, by the named inventors of the '164 PATENT, or by any owner, assignee, or licensee of the '164 PATENT that embodies, practices, or uses any of the alleged inventions claimed in the '164 PATENT including the specific claim(s) of the '164 PATENT that are embodied, practiced, or used in or by each. such product or system and the product name, model number, trade name, trademark or other indicia and the dates each product or system was made, sold, or licensed.
RESPONSE TO INTERROGATORY NO.7:
Subject to and without waiving its previously stated General Objections, McKesson states the following Specific Objections to this interrogatory:
12
Case 1:04-cv-01258-SLR
Document 424-10
Filed 06/22/2006
Page 17 of 36
McKesson objects to this interrogatory as premature. Whether a product or
system "embodie[s], practice{s], or use[sJ" inventions claimed in the '164 patent requires
a construction of the patent's claims, the proper determination of which will be made by
the Court as a matter of law, and an application of that construction to a product or
system that may require expert analysis. Furthermore, McKesson's damages
investigation is ongoing and may require expert analysis which has not been completed.
Moreover, as stated in McKesson's response to Interrogatory Number 1, TriZetto's request for McKesson's claim construction contentions is premature at this time. McKesson further objects to this interrogatory's use of "YOU" and "YOUR," as those
terms are defined by TriZetto, as well as its request for information regarding any licensees' products or systems, as unduly burdensome, overbroad, and seeking
information that is not within McKesson's possession, custody, or control and/or seeking
information that is neither relevant to the claim or defense of any party nor reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence. Under TriZetto' s definitions, this interrogatory calls for the contentions, if any, of innumerable third-party individuals
and entities with no connection to this action.
McKesson further objects to this interrogatory as vague and ambiguous,
particularly with respect to the phrase "alleged inventions." The United States Patent and
Trademark Office issued the '164 patent after due consideration of the prior art and all requirements. for patentability. Accordingly, each claim of the '164 patent is presumed,
as a matter of law, to describe a patentable invention. McKesson further objects to this interrogatory as compound and having multiple subparts. McKesson further objects to
13
Case 1:04-cv-01258-SLR
Document 424-10
Filed 06/22/2006
Page 18 of 36
this interrogatory to the extent that it seeks information protected by the attorney-client
privilege, the work product immunity doctrine, or other privileges.
Subject to and without waiving the foregoing objections, McKesson responds to this interrogatory as follows: Neither TriZetto nor any third-party have identified a sale
or offer for sale that invalidates any claim of the '164 patent and McKesson is not aware
of any such sale or offer for sale. To McKesson's knowledge, consistent with their
obligation under 37 C.F.R. § 1.56, the inventors and prosecuting attorneys disclosed all material prior art of which they were aware to the United States Patent and Trademark
Office during the prosecution of the '164.patent. Those prior art references are identified
in the prosecution history of the '164 patent, a copy of which McKesson has produced to
TriZetto. McKesson's investigation into information responsive to this interrogatory is
ongoing and McKesson reserves the right to supplement this response as discovery
continues or as circumstances otherwise warrant.
INTERROGATORY NO.8:
For each product or system, the identification of which is sought by Interrogatory No. 7, IDENTiFY the PERSONS most knowledgeable about that product or system and state when it was first described in a printed publication, publicly disclosed, or offered for sale and sold anywhere in the world:
RESPONSE TO INTERROGATORY NO.8:
Subject to and without waiving its previously stated General Objections, McKesson states the following Specific Objections to this interrogatory. McKesson objects to this interrogatory for the same reasons stated in response to Interrogatory Number 7 and incorporates its response and objections to that interrogatory
herein in their entirety.

McKesson's investigation into information responsive to this interrogatory is
ongoing and McKesson reserves the right to supplement this response as discovery
continues or as circumstances otherwise warrant.
INTERROGATORY NO.9:
IDENTIFY all prior art to the '164 PATENT (including publications, patents, patent applications, inventions by others, uses, sales or offers for sale, and disclosures) which YOU, the named inventors or the '164 PATENT, any owner, assignee or licensee of the '164 PATENT, or any patent agent or attorney acting on behalf of the named inventors of the '164 PATENT, were aware prior to filing the '164 PATENT.
RESPONSE TO INTERROGATORY NO.9:
Subject to and without waiving its previously stated General Objections, McKesson states the following Specific Objections to this interrogatory: McKesson objects to this interrogatory as vague and ambiguous, particularly with
· respect to the phrases "filing the '164 PATENT" and "prior art to the '164 PATENT."
Without further definition or limitation to a particular field, this interrogatory is overbroad and unduly burdensome andlor improperly calls for a legal determination of
what constitutes "prior art to the '164 PATENT." McKesson further objects to this
interrogatory as overbroad and unduly burdensome to the extent it seeks information regarding the awareness of any individuals other than the named inventors and
prosecuting attorneys, as such information is neither relevant to the claim or defense of
any party nor reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence.
McKesson further objects to this interrogatory's use of the term "YOU," as that term is
defined by TriZetto, as unduly burdensome, overbroad, and seeking information that is not within McKesson's possession, custody, or control and/or seeking information that is neither relevant to the claim or defense of any party nor reasonably calculated to lead to
15
Case 1:04-cv-01258-SLR
Document 424-10
Filed 06/22/2006
Page 20 of 36
the discovery of admissible evidence. TriZetto's definition calls for information
regarding the awareness, if any, of innumerable third-party individuals and entities with no connection to this action. McKesson further objects to this interrogatory as compound and having multiple subparts. McKesson further objects to this interrogatory to the
extent that it seeks information protected by the attorney-client privilege, 'the work
product irnmuiiity doctrine, or other privileges.
Subject to and without waiving the foregoing objections, McKesson responds to
this interrogatory as follows: To McKesson's knowledge, consistent with their obligation
under 37 C.F.R. § 1.56, the inventors and prosecuting attorneys disclosed all material prior art of which they were aware to the United States Patent and Trademark Office
during the prosecution of the '164 patent. Those prior art references are identified in the prosecution history of the '164 patent, a copy of which McKesson has produced to TriZetto. McKesson's investigation into information responsive to this interrogatory is
ongoing and McKesson reserves the right to supplement this response as discovery continues or as circumstances otherwise warrant.
INTERROGATORY NO. 10:
For every item of prior art the identification of which is sought by Interrogatory No. 9, describe how the prior art was located and the PERSON most knowledgeable about the location of that prior art, and identify all documents relating thereto.
RESPONSE TO INTERROGATORY NO. 10:
Subject to and without waiving its previously stated General Objections, McKesson states the following Specific Objections to this interrogatory: McKesson objects to this interrogatory for the same reasons stated in response to Interrogatory Number 9 and incorporates its response and objections to that interrogatory

herein in their entirety. McKesson further objects to this request as vague and
ambiguous, particularly with respect to the phrases "how the prior art was located,"
"location," and "relating thereto." McKesson further objects to this request as overbroad
and unduly burdensome to the extent it seeks information regarding "how the prior art
was located," as such information is neither relevant to the claim or defene of any party
nor reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence. McKesson
further objects to this interrogatory to the extent that it seeks information protected by the attorney-client privilege, the work product immunity doctrine, or other privileges. Subject to and without waiving the foregoing objections, McKesson responds to
this interrogatory as follows: To McKesson's knowledge, consistent with their obligation
under 37 C.F.R. § 1.56, the inventors and prosecuting attorneys of the '164 patent
disclosed all material prior art ofwhich they were aware to the United States Patent and

produced to TriZetto. McKesson's investigation into information responsive to this
interrogatory is ongoing and McKesson reserves the right to supplement this response as
discovery continues or as circumstances otherwise warrant.
INTERROGATORY NO. 11:
