Article 256Judgment for Modification

第二百五十六条(変更の判決)

If the court finds a violation of law or regulation in a judgment, it may reach a judgment to modify it, but only within one week after the judgment's rendition; provided, however, that this does not apply if the judgment has become final and binding or additional oral arguments in the case are necessary in order to modify the judgment.

裁判所は、判決に法令の違反があることを発見したときは、その言渡し後一週間以内に限り、変更の判決をすることができる。ただし、判決が確定したとき、又は判決を変更するため事件につき更に弁論をする必要があるときは、この限りでない。

A judgment for modification is reached without oral arguments being heard.

変更の判決は、口頭弁論を経ないでする。

If a summons to appear on the date for the rendition of a judgment as referred to in the preceding paragraph is served by an electronic writ of summons (limited to a summons recorded in the court's computer files pursuant to the provisions of Article 94, paragraph (2)), service is deemed to have been effected at the times specified in the following items for the categories of service stated in those items:
