Article 235

第二百三十五条

A person that installs a window or porch (including a veranda, the same applies in the following paragraph) at a distance of less than one meter from a boundary line allowing the observation of the residential land of another person must put up a privacy screen.

境界線から一メートル未満の距離において他人の宅地を見通すことのできる窓又は縁側(ベランダを含む。次項において同じ。)を設ける者は、目隠しを付けなければならない。

The distance referred to in the preceding paragraph is calculated by measuring the length of a straight line from the point on the window or porch closest to the neighboring land, to where it reaches the boundary line at a right angle.

前項の距離は、窓又は縁側の最も隣地に近い点から垂直線によって境界線に至るまでを測定して算出する。
