The judge who has been requested for detention pursuant to the provisions of the preceding three Articles has the same authority as a court or a presiding judge regarding the disposition thereof; provided however, that this does not apply to bail.
前三条の規定による勾留の請求を受けた裁判官は、その処分に関し裁判所又は裁判長と同一の権限を有する。但し、保釈については、この限りでない。
When informing a suspect whose detention has been requested of the alleged facts of the crime, the judge referred to in the preceding paragraph must notify the suspect that a suspect is entitled to appoint a defense counsel, and that when unable to personally appoint a defense counsel due to indigence or any other grounds, the suspect is entitled to request a judge to appoint a defense counsel; provided, however, that this does not apply if a defense counsel has been appointed for the suspect.
前項の裁判官は、勾留を請求された被疑者に被疑事件を告げる際に、被疑者に対し、弁護人を選任することができる旨及び貧困その他の事由により自ら弁護人を選任することができないときは弁護人の選任を請求することができる旨を告げなければならない。ただし、被疑者に弁護人があるときは、この限りでない。
When informing a suspect that the suspect is entitled to appoint a defense counsel pursuant to the provisions of the preceding paragraph, the judge must inform the suspect that the suspect, once detained, may make a request for appointment of a defense counsel specifying an attorney, a legal professional corporation or a bar association, and of the person to which the request must be made.
前項の規定により弁護人を選任することができる旨を告げるに当たつては、勾留された被疑者は弁護士、弁護士法人又は弁護士会を指定して弁護人の選任を申し出ることができる旨及びその申出先を教示しなければならない。
When informing a suspect that the suspect is entitled to appoint a defense counsel pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (2), the judge must inform the suspect that the suspect must submit a report on personal financial resources when making a request for appointment of a defense counsel, and that when the suspect's financial resources are equal to or above the base amount, the suspect must have first requested a bar association (meaning the bar association to which the request under Article 31-2, paragraph (1) is to be made pursuant to the provisions of Article 37-3, paragraph (2)) to appoint the defense counsel.
第二項の規定により弁護人の選任を請求することができる旨を告げるに当たつては、弁護人の選任を請求するには資力申告書を提出しなければならない旨及びその資力が基準額以上であるときは、あらかじめ、弁護士会（第三十七条の三第二項の規定により第三十一条の二第一項の申出をすべき弁護士会をいう。）に弁護人の選任の申出をしていなければならない旨を教示しなければならない。
When a judge receives a request for detention under paragraph (1), the judge must promptly issue a detention warrant; provided, however, that when the judge finds that there are no grounds for detention or when the judge is unable to issue a detention warrant pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (2) of the preceding Article, the judge must immediately order the release of a suspect without issuing a detention warrant.
