Article 541Cancellation After Demand

第五百四十一条(催告による解除)

If one of the parties does not perform that party's obligation, and the other party demands performance of that obligation, specifying a reasonable period of time, but no performance is completed during that period, the other party may cancel the contract; provided, however, that this does not apply if the non-performance of the obligations upon the passage of the period is minor in light of the contract and common sense trading practices.

当事者の一方がその債務を履行しない場合において、相手方が相当の期間を定めてその履行の催告をし、その期間内に履行がないときは、相手方は、契約の解除をすることができる。ただし、その期間を経過した時における債務の不履行がその契約及び取引上の社会通念に照らして軽微であるときは、この限りでない。
