Article 51Execution of Two or More Punishments Pertaining to Consolidated Punishments
第五十一条（併合罪に係る二個以上の刑の執行）
When two or more punishments have been rendered in regard to the crimes for consolidated punishment, the punishments are executed cumulatively; provided, however, that when the death penalty is to be executed, no other punishment except confiscation is executed, and when imprisonment for life is to be executed, no other punishment except a fine, petty fine and confiscation is executed.
併合罪について二個以上の裁判があったときは、その刑を併せて執行する。ただし、死刑を執行すべきときは、没収を除き、他の刑を執行せず、無期拘禁刑を執行すべきときは、罰金、科料及び没収を除き、他の刑を執行しない。
When two or more punishments of imprisonment for a definite term are executed in accordance with the preceding paragraph, the maximum term to be executed may not exceed the term obtained by adding half of the maximum term prescribed for the crime of the greatest punishment.
前項の場合における有期拘禁刑の執行は、その最も重い罪について定めた刑の長期にその二分の一を加えたものを超えることができない。
