Article 133-3Special Provisions Concerning Restriction of Access If an Investigation Has Been Commissioned into the Place for Service

第百三十三条の三(送達をすべき場所等の調査嘱託があった場合における閲覧等の制限の特則)

If, in order to serve a party or their legal representative, the court commissions an investigation into a party's or legal representative's domicile or residence or into any other place where they are to be served, and the court finds there to be a clear likelihood that allowing the inspection of a paper document or electronic or magnetic record containing a report of the results of the commissioned investigation would substantially interfere with that party's or legal representative's public life, it may issue a ruling limiting the persons permitted to request access to that document or record, to paper documents or electronic or magnetic records under Article 100 concerning service effected based on the report, and to any other case records or filing records connected with similar paper documents or electronic or magnetic records, to the party or legal representative in question. This also applies if the court commissions an investigation into the name of a party or their legal representative and other information sufficient to identify them, for the purpose of identifying the party or their legal representative.

裁判所は、当事者又はその法定代理人に対して送達をするため、その者の住所、居所その他送達をすべき場所についての調査を嘱託した場合において、当該嘱託に係る調査結果の報告が記載され、又は記録された書面又は電磁的記録が閲覧されることにより、当事者又はその法定代理人が社会生活を営むのに著しい支障を生ずるおそれがあることが明らかであると認めるときは、決定で、当該書面又は電磁的記録及びこれに基づいてされた送達に関する第百条の書面又は電磁的記録その他これに類する書面又は電磁的記録に係る訴訟記録等の閲覧等の請求をすることができる者を当該当事者又は当該法定代理人に限ることができる。当事者又はその法定代理人を特定するため、その者の氏名その他当該者を特定するに足りる事項についての調査を嘱託した場合についても、同様とする。

The provisions of paragraphs (5) and (6) of the preceding Article apply mutatis mutandis if a ruling under the provisions of the preceding paragraph is issued.

前条第五項及び第六項の規定は、前項の規定による決定があった場合について準用する。
