In examining witnesses, if the Participating Victim or the entrusted attorney makes a request to examine a witness, the court is to hear the opinion of the defendant or the defense counsel and, taking into consideration the state of the proceedings, the content of the particulars of the request for examination, the number of persons making the request and other circumstances, permit the person who made the request to examine the witness on particulars necessary to challenge the probative value of the statements of the witness with regard to the particulars relating to the circumstances (except for particulars relating to fact-finding) when it finds appropriate.
裁判所は、証人を尋問する場合において、被害者参加人又はその委託を受けた弁護士から、その者がその証人を尋問することの申出があるときは、被告人又は弁護人の意見を聴き、審理の状況、申出に係る尋問事項の内容、申出をした者の数その他の事情を考慮し、相当と認めるときは、情状に関する事項（犯罪事実に関するものを除く。）についての証人の供述の証明力を争うために必要な事項について、申出をした者がその証人を尋問することを許すものとする。
The request set forth under the preceding paragraph must be made to the public prosecutor clarifying the particulars to be examined immediately after conclusion of the examination by the public prosecutor (where the prosecutor does not conduct an examination, after the examination by the defendant or the defense counsel). In this case, the public prosecutor must notify this to the court together with the prosecutor's opinion except in cases where said prosecutor is to personally examine said particulars.
前項の申出は、検察官の尋問が終わつた後（検察官の尋問がないときは、被告人又は弁護人の尋問が終わつた後）直ちに、尋問事項を明らかにして、検察官にしなければならない。この場合において、検察官は、当該事項について自ら尋問する場合を除き、意見を付して、これを裁判所に通知するものとする。
Other than the cases provided in Article 295, paragraphs (1) through (4), the presiding judge may place restrictions on an examination if the examination made by the Participating Victim or the entrusted attorney leads to particulars other than the particulars provided in paragraph (1).
裁判長は、第二百九十五条第一項から第四項までに規定する場合のほか、被害者参加人又はその委託を受けた弁護士のする尋問が第一項に規定する事項以外の事項にわたるときは、これを制限することができる。

Short name set inArticle 316-33, paragraph (3)
public prosecutor
検察官
The official who brings a prosecution (公訴) for a crime before a court (Code of Criminal Procedure, Article 247), and who may decide not to prosecute where, in view of the offender's character, age and circumstances, the gravity and circumstances of the offence and what happened after it, prosecution is not needed (Article 248). In criminal cases a public prosecutor asks the court to apply the law correctly and oversees the carrying out of its judgments; and, as the representative of the public interest, a public prosecutor also does the work other laws and regulations assign to a public prosecutor, which is not limited to criminal cases (Public Prosecutors Office Act, Article 4). A public prosecutor may investigate any crime (Article 6, paragraph (1)). Public prosecutors work through the public prosecutors offices (検察庁): the Supreme, High, District and Local Public Prosecutors Offices (Article 1).
