Article 647Mandatary's Responsibility for Consumption of Monies

第六百四十七条(受任者の金銭の消費についての責任)

If the mandatary has personally consumed monies that were to be delivered to the mandator or used for the benefit of the mandator, the mandatary must pay interest for the period from the day of that consumption. In these cases, if loss or damage persists, the mandatary is liable to compensate for the same.

受任者は、委任者に引き渡すべき金額又はその利益のために用いるべき金額を自己のために消費したときは、その消費した日以後の利息を支払わなければならない。この場合において、なお損害があるときは、その賠償の責任を負う。
