Article 34Measures If a Person Lacks Capacity to Sue or Be Sued

第三十四条(訴訟能力等を欠く場合の措置等)

If a person lacks the capacity to sue or be sued, authority to act as a person legal representative, or delegation of powers that is necessary for performing a procedural act, the court must order this to be corrected within a specified time frame. In such a case, if there is a risk of damage arising from a delay, the court may have the person perform procedural acts on a temporary basis.

訴訟能力、法定代理権又は訴訟行為をするのに必要な授権を欠くときは、裁判所は、期間を定めて、その補正を命じなければならない。この場合において、遅滞のため損害を生ずるおそれがあるときは、裁判所は、一時訴訟行為をさせることができる。

A procedural act performed by a person without the capacity to sue or be sued, the authority to act as a person's legal representative, or the delegation of powers that is necessary for performing that procedural act, becomes valid retroactive to the time of the act through ratification by a party or legal representative that has come to satisfy these requirements.

訴訟能力、法定代理権又は訴訟行為をするのに必要な授権を欠く者がした訴訟行為は、これらを有するに至った当事者又は法定代理人の追認により、行為の時にさかのぼってその効力を生ずる。

The provisions of the preceding two paragraphs apply mutatis mutandis if an appointed party performs procedural acts.

前二項の規定は、選定当事者が訴訟行為をする場合について準用する。
