Article 1032Use and Profit by Spouse

第千三十二条(配偶者による使用及び収益)

The spouse must use and profit from the building of residence in accordance with its previous manner of use and with the due care of a prudent manager; provided, however, that this does not preclude the spouse from putting to residential use any portion that was not previously put to residential use.

配偶者は、従前の用法に従い、善良な管理者の注意をもって、居住建物の使用及び収益をしなければならない。ただし、従前居住の用に供していなかった部分について、これを居住の用に供することを妨げない。

The spouse's right of residence may not be assigned.

配偶者居住権は、譲渡することができない。

The spouse may not rebuild or add to the building of residence, or allow a third party to use or profit from the building of residence, without obtaining the consent of the owner of the building of residence.

配偶者は、居住建物の所有者の承諾を得なければ、居住建物の改築若しくは増築をし、又は第三者に居住建物の使用若しくは収益をさせることができない。

If the spouse has violated the provisions of paragraph (1) or the preceding paragraph, and the owner of the building of residence has demanded rectification by specifying a reasonable period of time but rectification has not been made within that period, the owner of the building of residence may extinguish the spouse's right of residence by a manifestation of intention to that spouse.

配偶者が第一項又は前項の規定に違反した場合において、居住建物の所有者が相当の期間を定めてその是正の催告をし、その期間内に是正がされないときは、居住建物の所有者は、当該配偶者に対する意思表示によって配偶者居住権を消滅させることができる。
