Article 545Effect of Cancellation

第五百四十五条(解除の効果)

If one of the parties exercises the right to cancel, each party assumes an obligation to restore the other party to that other party's original state; provided, however, that this may not prejudice the rights of a third party.

当事者の一方がその解除権を行使したときは、各当事者は、その相手方を原状に復させる義務を負う。ただし、第三者の権利を害することはできない。

In the case referred to in the main clause of the preceding paragraph, if any monies are to be refunded, interest must accrue from the time of the receipt of those monies.

前項本文の場合において、金銭を返還するときは、その受領の時から利息を付さなければならない。

In the case referred to in the main clause of paragraph (1), if a thing other than money is to be returned, fruits that have accrued on or after the time of the receipt of the thing must also be returned.

第一項本文の場合において、金銭以外の物を返還するときは、その受領の時以後に生じた果実をも返還しなければならない。

The exercise of the right to cancel does not preclude claims for damages.

解除権の行使は、損害賠償の請求を妨げない。
