Article 807Annulment of an Adoption Effected Without the Permission of the Family Court; Adopted Child Is a Minor

第八百七条(養子が未成年者である場合の無許可縁組の取消し)

The adopted child, a natural relative thereof, or the person consenting to the adoption on the adopted child's behalf may request the family court to annul the adoption if it violates the provisions of Article 798;provided, however, that this does not apply if, after the adopted child attains the age of majority, six months are allowed to pass or the child ratifies the adoption.

第七百九十八条の規定に違反した縁組は、養子、その実方の親族又は養子に代わって縁組の承諾をした者から、その取消しを家庭裁判所に請求することができる。ただし、養子が、成年に達した後六箇月を経過し、又は追認をしたときは、この限りでない。
