Article 327Special Appeal to the Court of Last Resort

第三百二十七条(特別上告)

A further appeal may be filed with the Supreme Court against a final judgment entered by the high court as the final appellate court, but only on the grounds that the judgment involves an error in the interpretation of the Constitution or that it is otherwise unconstitutional.

高等裁判所が上告審としてした終局判決に対しては、その判決に憲法の解釈の誤りがあることその他憲法の違反があることを理由とするときに限り、最高裁判所に更に上告をすることができる。

Unless it is contrary to their nature, provisions concerning a final appeal and litigation proceedings in the final appellate instance against a final judgment by the court of second instance or the court of first instance apply mutatis mutandis to a final appeal as referred to in the preceding paragraph and litigation proceedings in the final appellate instance. This being the case, the phrase "a prior instance judgment" in Article 321, paragraph (1) is deemed to be replaced with "the final judgment entered by the district court as the court of second instance (or the final judgment entered by the summary court, if a final appeal under the provisions of Article 311, paragraph (2) is filed)".

前項の上告及びその上告審の訴訟手続には、その性質に反しない限り、第二審又は第一審の終局判決に対する上告及びその上告審の訴訟手続に関する規定を準用する。この場合において、第三百二十一条第一項中「原判決」とあるのは、「地方裁判所が第二審としてした終局判決(第三百十一条第二項の規定による上告があった場合にあっては、簡易裁判所の終局判決)」と読み替えるものとする。
