Article 25Administration of Absentee Property

第二十五条(不在者の財産の管理)

If a person who has taken leave of the domicile or residence up until then (referred to as an "absentee" below) has not appointed an administrator for the person's property (in this Section referred to simply as an "administrator" below), the family court, at the request of an interested person or a public prosecutor, may order the necessary dispositions with regard to the administration of that property. The same applies if the administrator's authority is extinguished during the absence of the absentee.

従来の住所又は居所を去った者(以下「不在者」という。)がその財産の管理人(以下この節において単に「管理人」という。)を置かなかったときは、家庭裁判所は、利害関係人又は検察官の請求により、その財産の管理について必要な処分を命ずることができる。本人の不在中に管理人の権限が消滅したときも、同様とする。

If an absentee appoints an administrator after an order under the provisions of the preceding paragraph has been issued, the family court must set aside that order at the request of the person's administrator, an interested person, or a public prosecutor.

前項の規定による命令後、本人が管理人を置いたときは、家庭裁判所は、その管理人、利害関係人又は検察官の請求により、その命令を取り消さなければならない。
