Article 1035Return of the Building of Residence, etc.

第千三十五条(居住建物の返還等)

When the spouse's right of residence is extinguished, the spouse must return the building of residence; provided, however, that if the spouse holds a co-ownership interest in the building of residence, the owner of the building of residence may not demand return of the building of residence on the grounds that the spouse's right of residence has been extinguished.

配偶者は、配偶者居住権が消滅したときは、居住建物の返還をしなければならない。ただし、配偶者が居住建物について共有持分を有する場合は、居住建物の所有者は、配偶者居住権が消滅したことを理由としては、居住建物の返還を求めることができない。

The provisions of Article 599, paragraphs (1) and (2) and Article 621 apply mutatis mutandis to the case where, pursuant to the main clause of the preceding paragraph, the spouse returns a building of residence that has things the spouse attached after the opening of the succession or that has damage arising after the opening of the succession.

第五百九十九条第一項及び第二項並びに第六百二十一条の規定は、前項本文の規定により配偶者が相続の開始後に附属させた物がある居住建物又は相続の開始後に生じた損傷がある居住建物の返還をする場合について準用する。
