If a lawsuit regarding a demand for injunction has been filed in one court, but a lawsuit regarding a demand for injunction against the same or a similar act is pending before another court, the court, upon finding it to be reasonable to do so, may transfer the lawsuit in whole or in part to that other court or to another competent court having jurisdiction, in consideration of the addresses or locations of the relevant parties, the addresses of witnesses to be examined, the similarity of points at dispute or evidence, or other circumstances, upon petition or by its own authority.
裁判所は、差止請求に係る訴えが提起された場合であって、他の裁判所に同一又は同種の行為の差止請求に係る訴訟が係属している場合においては、当事者の住所又は所在地、尋問を受けるべき証人の住所、争点又は証拠の共通性その他の事情を考慮して、相当と認めるときは、申立てにより又は職権で、当該訴えに係る訴訟の全部又は一部について、当該他の裁判所又は他の管轄裁判所に移送することができる。
