From and two subproofs deriving the same conclusion , one under an additional assumption and the other under an additional assumption , infer and discharge those two case assumptions. Any other assumptions remain in force.
If each of , and separately yields the same conclusion , then yields , with the three case assumptions discharged. For , first eliminate the outer logical disjunction, using a nested applications of the disjunction elimination rule on the branch. For , nest the second elimination in the other branch. Common surrounding assumptions remain open.
