Article 66Handling of Rights of Retention

第六十六条(留置権の取扱い)

A right of retention under the provisions of the Commercial Code or the Companies Act that exists at the time of commencement of bankruptcy proceedings over property that belongs to the bankruptcy estate is deemed to be a special statutory lien against the bankruptcy estate.

破産手続開始の時において破産財団に属する財産につき存する商法又は会社法の規定による留置権は、破産財団に対しては特別の先取特権とみなす。

The special statutory lien stated in the preceding paragraph is subordinate to any other special statutory lien under the provisions of the Civil Code or any other Acts.

前項の特別の先取特権は、民法その他の法律の規定による他の特別の先取特権に後れる。

Except for the one prescribed in paragraph (1), a right of retention that exists at the time of commencement of bankruptcy proceedings over property that belongs to the bankruptcy estate ceases to be effective against the bankruptcy estate.

第一項に規定するものを除き、破産手続開始の時において破産財団に属する財産につき存する留置権は、破産財団に対してはその効力を失う。
