第九十七条（許可抗告をすることができる裁判等）
Article 97Judicial Decisions Against Which Appeals with Permission May Be Filed
An appeal may be specially filed with the Supreme Court against an order made by a high court on a case for adjudication of domestic relations (excluding an order on the petition set forth in the following paragraph), only if that high court permits it pursuant to the following paragraph, beyond the case under the provisions of Article 94, paragraph (1); provided, however, that this applies only when an immediate appeal may be filed against the order on the assumption that it is a ruling made by a family court.
When the order set forth in the preceding paragraph contains a determination that is inconsistent with precedents rendered by the Supreme Court (or precedents rendered by the former Supreme Court or those rendered by high courts as the final appellate court or the court in charge of an appeal filed against a ruling, if there are no precedents rendered by the Supreme Court) or when the order is found to involve other material matters concerning the construction of laws and regulations, the high court set forth in the paragraph must, upon petition, permit an appeal filed against the order.
The petition set forth in the preceding paragraph may not state the grounds prescribed in Article 94, paragraph (1) as reasons for appeal.
Where permission is granted under the provisions of paragraph (2), it is deemed that the appeal set forth in paragraph (1) (hereinafter referred to as an "appeal with permission" in this Article and paragraph (1) of the following Article) has been filed.
The court in charge of an appeal before which an appeal with permission is pending conducts an examination only with regard to the reasons for the appeal with permission indicated in a petition for permission under the provisions of paragraph (2) or a statement of reasons for a petition under the paragraph.
The court in charge of an appeal before which an appeal with permission is pending may quash the order in the prior instance if it contains a violation of laws or regulations that apparently affects a judicial decision.
許可抗告が係属する抗告裁判所は、裁判に影響を及ぼすことが明らかな法令の違反があるときは、原決定を破棄することができる。
略称規定第九十七条第四項・この条及び第九十八条第一項の中だけ
第二項の規定による許可があった場合には、第一項の抗告（以下この条及び次条第一項において「許可抗告」という。）があったものとみなす。
わかりやすく言うと
高等裁判所が家事審判事件についてした決定に対し、その高等裁判所の許可を受けて最高裁判所にする抗告のことです。家庭裁判所の審判であれば即時抗告ができる決定に限られ、許可の申立てについての決定は対象外です。許可があると、抗告があったものとみなされます。
最高裁判所
司法権の属する最高の裁判所で、一切の法律・命令・規則・処分が憲法に適合するかしないかを決定する終審裁判所です（第七十六条第一項・第八十一条）。憲法に違反する法令等は効力を有しないとされ（第九十八条第一項）、これを判断する権限が憲法を実効あらしめています。裁判官は任命後初の衆議院議員総選挙の際、その後十年を経過した後初めての総選挙の際に国民の審査に付されます（第七十九条第二項）。
