Article 96Fraud or Duress

第九十六条(詐欺又は強迫)

A manifestation of intention based on fraud or duress may be revoked.

詐欺又は強迫による意思表示は、取り消すことができる。

If a third party commits a fraud inducing a first party to make a manifestation of intention to a second party, that manifestation of intention may be revoked only if the second party knew or could have known that fact.

相手方に対する意思表示について第三者が詐欺を行った場合においては、相手方がその事実を知り、又は知ることができたときに限り、その意思表示を取り消すことができる。

The revocation of a manifestation of intention induced by fraud under the provisions of the preceding two paragraphs may not be duly asserted against a third party in good faith acting without negligence.

前二項の規定による詐欺による意思表示の取消しは、善意でかつ過失がない第三者に対抗することができない。
