vicarious reduction to practice

A doctrine that treats one party’s actual reduction to practice of an invention as the opposing (usu. complaining) party’s actual reduction to practice.

• In a two-party interference, proof of derivation is usu. sufficient; showing an actual reduction to practice is unnecessary. The doctrine is more important in a three-party interference. [Cases: Patents 90(5). C.J.S. Patents § 123.]
