Article 518Transfer of Security to Obligation After Novation

第五百十八条(更改後の債務への担保の移転)

To the extent of the amount of the obligation before the novation, the obligee (in the case of a novation by substitution of obligee, the obligee before the novation) may transfer the pledge or mortgage created as the security of that obligation to the obligation in effect after the novation; provided, however, that if any third party created that security, the consent of the third party must be obtained.

債権者(債権者の交替による更改にあっては、更改前の債権者)は、更改前の債務の目的の限度において、その債務の担保として設定された質権又は抵当権を更改後の債務に移すことができる。ただし、第三者がこれを設定した場合には、その承諾を得なければならない。

The transfer of the pledge or mortgage referred to in the preceding paragraph must be effected by manifesting the intention to the other party to the novation (in the case of a novation by substitution of obligee, the obligor) in advance or upon the transfer.

前項の質権又は抵当権の移転は、あらかじめ又は同時に更改の相手方(債権者の交替による更改にあっては、債務者)に対してする意思表示によってしなければならない。
