Article 370The Single-Day Trial Principle

第三百七十条(一期日審理の原則)

In a small claims action, unless there are special circumstances, the trial must be completed on the first date for oral arguments.

少額訴訟においては、特別の事情がある場合を除き、最初にすべき口頭弁論の期日において、審理を完了しなければならない。

The parties must advance all allegations and evidence prior to the date referred to in the preceding paragraph or on that date; provided, however, that this does not apply if oral arguments are continued.

当事者は、前項の期日前又はその期日において、すべての攻撃又は防御の方法を提出しなければならない。ただし、口頭弁論が続行されたときは、この限りでない。
