German term
neuheitsschädlich
German to English
Law/Patents
Law: Patents, Trademarks, Copyright
On Googles this is translated as "prejudicial as to novelty," which is a bit clumsy. Is there a standard English equivalent, or can answerers perhaps invent a more compact formulation?
Brief extract from a "Streitpatent":
"Der Merkmalskomplex wxyz ist nicht erfüllt; alle anderen Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 des Streitpatent sind durch 'v' identisch *neuheitsschädlich*vorweggenommen."

In my experience as a full-time patent translator, this is the standard expression. In your case, the features are "anticipated in a manner prejudicial to novelty".
