Article 200Actions for Recovery of Possession

第二百条(占有回収の訴え)

If a possessor is forcibly dispossessed, the possessor may demand the restitution of the thing and claim compensation by filing an action for recovery of possession.

占有者がその占有を奪われたときは、占有回収の訴えにより、その物の返還及び損害の賠償を請求することができる。

An action for recovery of possession may not be filed against a specific successor of a person that forcibly takes possession; provided, however, that this does not apply if that successor had knowledge of the fact that the person has unlawfully taken the possession.

占有回収の訴えは、占有を侵奪した者の特定承継人に対して提起することができない。ただし、その承継人が侵奪の事実を知っていたときは、この限りでない。
