An adoption is void only in one of the following cases:
縁組は、次に掲げる場合に限り、無効とする。
if the parties did not have the mutual intention to enter into the adoption due to a party being mistaken as to the identity of the other or any other cause; or
人違いその他の事由によって当事者間に縁組をする意思がないとき。
if the parties have failed to register the adoption; provided, however, that if the registration merely lacks a formality prescribed in Article 739, paragraph (2) as applied mutatis mutandis pursuant to Article 799, this does not impair the validity of the adoption.
当事者が縁組の届出をしないとき。ただし、その届出が第七百九十九条において準用する第七百三十九条第二項に定める方式を欠くだけであるときは、縁組は、そのためにその効力を妨げられない。
This names a provision as it read when this amending Act was made. It may have been amended since, so today's text can say something else. That is why it is not a link.This names a law that is not in this collection, so there is nothing here to open.We could not tell which provision this names, so it is not a link.
