Article 413-2Impossibility of Performance during Obligor's Delay in Performance or Obligee's Delay in Acceptance, and Grounds Attributable

第四百十三条の二(履行遅滞中又は受領遅滞中の履行不能と帰責事由)

If the performance of an obligation becomes impossible due to grounds not attributable to either party during a period in which the obligor is liable for delay in performance of the obligation, the impossibility of performance is deemed to be due to grounds attributable to the obligor.

債務者がその債務について遅滞の責任を負っている間に当事者双方の責めに帰することができない事由によってその債務の履行が不能となったときは、その履行の不能は、債務者の責めに帰すべき事由によるものとみなす。

If the obligee refuses or is unable to accept the performance of an obligation, and the performance of the obligation becomes impossible due to grounds not attributable to either party after the obligor's tender of the performance, the impossibility of performance is deemed to be due to grounds attributable to the obligee.

債権者が債務の履行を受けることを拒み、又は受けることができない場合において、履行の提供があった時以後に当事者双方の責めに帰することができない事由によってその債務の履行が不能となったときは、その履行の不能は、債権者の責めに帰すべき事由によるものとみなす。
