More Definitions of Necessary Claim

Necessary Claim is any claim in a patent in any jurisdiction that would necessarily be infringed by a compliant implementation of the Specification. A claim is necessarily infringed only when it is impossible to avoid infringing it, because there is no non-infringing alternative for implementing the normative portions of the Specification. All other claims, even if contained in the same patent as Necessary Claims, are not Necessary Claims. Claims which would be infringed only by portions of an implementation that (a) are not expressly specified in the normative portions of the Specification, or (b) are out of Scope, are not Necessary Claims.
