Inovis has asked that the following appear here: Notwithstanding Inovis' submission in this Joint Claim Chart, Inovis reserves the right to assert that Classified's failure to provide adequate answers to infringement interrogatory contentions bars it from asserting one of more claims in the 669 Patent. Inovis disagrees with Classified's statements in the following paragraph. Classified has asked that the following appear here: Classified has timely answered all interrogatories in accordance with the Fed. R. Civ. Pro. and this Court's local rules. Pursuant to these rules Classified will update its interrogatory responses as appropriate. Classified does not believe that this Joint Claim Chart is the proper vehicle for Inovis to raise this discovery issue, and likewise points out that Inovis has not followed the proper meet and confer procedures required by the local rules for handling discovery disputes. However, despite being advised of these deficiencies Inovis has refused to remove its Footnote 2. As a result, Classified has been forced to respond in kind. 3
