French term

déchu

French to English Law/Patents Business/Commerce (general) notes to a commercial contract
Any suggestions on the best (or most usual) way to translate this word in the following context?

Au cas où l’un des XXXX viendrait à être déclaré nul, ***déchu*** ou contrefaisant par décision judiciaire, les personnes autorisées ne pourront prétendre à aucune indemnité compensatoire.

I've mostly come across "déchu" referring to someone being "stripped" of some right or other, but here it's used in reference to a product or service, so I'm not too sure.

Thanks in advance.

This is the juridical term. Deprived is a possibility but not in a juridical term, which is the case here.
