: IMHO, "reasonable + consider + sufficient" are spot on, but remember: this is a court decision. 'Shall' is needed here. (Yuko-san's offering rings right, but for 'and just right' (subjective, fuzzy and not suitable in a court verdict, I'd say.)

be reasonably considered satisfied / be reasonable to think satisfied
The expression is very formal way, seems lengthy a little even if the document is patent.
The main point is "reasonable" and "validate". I'm not so sure that my recommendation is good way to say this or not
