German term or phrase: vernichtet werden
Hi, is there a specific term for this with patents or can one use ' destroyed' which sounds a bit strange. Thanks in advance
Es kommt daher im Ergebnis nicht darauf an, dass das Klagepatent auch nicht Schutzfähig ist, so dass der Rechtsstreit auszusetzen wäre. Denn das Klagepatent wird auf die Nichtigkeitsklage der Beklagten hin vernichtet werden.

Explanation:
All these are used, but "revoked" is the most common, regardless of whether the action is administrative or judicial.
