In force today
If a summons for appearance on a court date is issued by means other than service of a writ of summons and notification of a court date to the person who has appeared for the relevant case, no legal sanction nor any other disadvantage associated with the failure to comply with the court date may be assigned to the person who does not appear on that court date; provided, however, that this does not apply if the person has submitted a paper document indicating receipt of the summons to appear on that court date.
呼出状の送達及び当該事件について出頭した者に対する期日の告知以外の方法による期日の呼出しをしたときは、期日に出頭しない者に対し、法律上の制裁その他期日の不遵守による不利益を帰することができない。ただし、その者が期日の呼出しを受けた旨を記載した書面を提出したときは、この限りでない。
