If the presiding judge, in consideration of the witness's age, mental or physical condition or any other circumstances, finds that the witness is likely to feel extreme anxiety or tension when being examined, then the presiding judge may have the witness accompanied during the testimony by a person who can best ease the witness' anxiety or tension and is unlikely to disturb the examination of the witness by the presiding judge or the parties or the testimony of the witness, or is unlikely to unduly influence the contents of the testimony.
裁判長は、証人の年齢又は心身の状態その他の事情を考慮し、証人が尋問を受ける場合に著しく不安又は緊張を覚えるおそれがあると認めるときは、その不安又は緊張を緩和するのに適当であり、かつ、裁判長若しくは当事者の尋問若しくは証人の陳述を妨げ、又はその陳述の内容に不当な影響を与えるおそれがないと認める者を、その証人の陳述中、証人に付き添わせることができる。
During the testimony of a witness, the person accompanying the witness pursuant to the provisions of the preceding paragraph must not behave in a manner that interferes with the examination of the presiding judge or the parties or with the testimony of the witness, or that unduly influences the content of the testimony.
前項の規定により証人に付き添うこととされた者は、その証人の陳述中、裁判長若しくは当事者の尋問若しくは証人の陳述を妨げ、又はその陳述の内容に不当な影響を与えるような言動をしてはならない。
