If an offer to the public stipulates that only the most outstanding applicant is to receive the reward in the event that two or more persons have performed the act requested in that offer, the offer to the public is effective only if it specifies an application period.
広告に定めた行為をした者が数人ある場合において、その優等者のみに報酬を与えるべきときは、その広告は、応募の期間を定めたときに限り、その効力を有する。
In the cases referred to in the preceding paragraph, the most outstanding applicant is judged by a person specified in the offer to the public and if no such person is specified in the offer, by the person that makes that offer.
Applicants may not raise objection to the judge's decision under the preceding paragraph.
応募者は、前項の判定に対して異議を述べることができない。
The provisions of paragraph (2) of the preceding Article apply mutatis mutandis if the acts of two or more persons are judged to be of the same level.
