Article 159Assignment Order

第百五十九条(転付命令)

An enforcement court may, upon petition by the attaching obligee, issue an order to assign the seized monetary claim to the attaching obligee at face value in lieu of payment (referred to as an "assignment order" below).

執行裁判所は、差押債権者の申立てにより、支払に代えて券面額で差し押さえられた金銭債権を差押債権者に転付する命令(以下「転付命令」という。)を発することができる。

An assignment order must be served upon the obligor and the third party obligor.

転付命令は、債務者及び第三債務者に送達しなければならない。

If, by the time an assignment order is served upon the third party obligor, another obligee carries out a seizure or a provisional seizure or makes a distribution demand in connection with the monetary claim subject to the assignment order, the assignment order does not become effective.

転付命令が第三債務者に送達される時までに、転付命令に係る金銭債権について、他の債権者が差押え、仮差押えの執行又は配当要求をしたときは、転付命令は、その効力を生じない。

An appeal may be filed against an order on the petition referred to in paragraph (1).

第一項の申立てについての決定に対しては、執行抗告をすることができる。

An assignment order is not effective until it becomes final and binding.

転付命令は、確定しなければその効力を生じない。

With regards to the application of the provisions of the preceding paragraph if a seized monetary claim is a claim stated in the items of Article 152, paragraph (1) or a claim under paragraph (2) of the Article (excluding cases where a monetary claim related to the obligations stated in the items of Article 151-2, paragraph (1) is included in claims of the attaching obligee), the phrase "unless it becomes final and binding" in the paragraph is deemed to be replaced with "until it becomes final and binding, and four weeks have passed from the date when the order of seizure is served to an obligor".

差し押さえられた金銭債権が第百五十二条第一項各号に掲げる債権又は同条第二項に規定する債権である場合(差押債権者の債権に第百五十一条の二第一項各号に掲げる義務に係る金銭債権が含まれているときを除く。)における前項の規定の適用については、同項中「確定しなければ」とあるのは、「確定し、かつ、債務者に対して差押命令が送達された日から四週間を経過するまでは、」とする。

If an appeal against an enforcement decision has been filed on the grounds that a document stated in Article 39, paragraph (1), item (vii) or (viii) was submitted after the issuance of an assignment order, the court of appeal must withhold the judicial decision on the appeal against an enforcement decision, except in the case of setting aside the assignment order on another ground.

転付命令が発せられた後に第三十九条第一項第七号又は第八号に掲げる文書を提出したことを理由として執行抗告がされたときは、抗告裁判所は、他の理由により転付命令を取り消す場合を除き、執行抗告についての裁判を留保しなければならない。
