If a family court makes the ruling prescribed in Article 23, paragraph (2), or in Article 24, paragraph (1), regarding a case in which a judge assigns a defense counsel, in advance, for the suspect, the provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure concerning the bearing of court costs apply mutatis mutandis. In this case, the term "render a sentence" in Article 181, paragraphs (1) and (2) in that Code is replaced by "give a ruling on disposition for rehabilitation of an adjudicated delinquent".
In a case in which a family court decides to order the juvenile to bear the court costs, a public prosecutor may inspect and copy the records and evidence of the case to the extent that is necessary to enforce the court decision, as prescribed by the Rules of the Supreme Court.

public prosecutor
検察官
The official who brings a prosecution (公訴) for a crime before a court (Code of Criminal Procedure, Article 247), and who may decide not to prosecute where, in view of the offender's character, age and circumstances, the gravity and circumstances of the offence and what happened after it, prosecution is not needed (Article 248). In criminal cases a public prosecutor asks the court to apply the law correctly and oversees the carrying out of its judgments; and, as the representative of the public interest, a public prosecutor also does the work other laws and regulations assign to a public prosecutor, which is not limited to criminal cases (Public Prosecutors Office Act, Article 4). A public prosecutor may investigate any crime (Article 6, paragraph (1)). Public prosecutors work through the public prosecutors offices (検察庁): the Supreme, High, District and Local Public Prosecutors Offices (Article 1).
