Article 706Performance Before Due Date

第七百六条(期限前の弁済)

If an obligor has paid money or delivered anything as performance of an obligation that has not yet fallen due, the obligor may not demand the return of the money paid or thing delivered; provided, however, that if the obligor tendered anything by mistake, the obligee must return the benefit gained as a result.

債務者は、弁済期にない債務の弁済として給付をしたときは、その給付したものの返還を請求することができない。ただし、債務者が錯誤によってその給付をしたときは、債権者は、これによって得た利益を返還しなければならない。
