<sup>art-619 · https://japanlaw.org/en/civil-code/art-619 · https://japanlaw.org/l/129AC0000000089/art-619</sup>

      **第一項**  賃貸借の期間が満了した後賃借人が賃借物の使用又は収益を継続する場合において、賃貸人がこれを知りながら異議を述べないときは、従前の賃貸借と同一の条件で更に賃貸借をしたものと推定する。この場合において、各当事者は、第六百十七条の規定により解約の申入れをすることができる。
      <sup>art-619/par-1 · https://japanlaw.org/en/civil-code/art-619/par-1 · https://japanlaw.org/l/129AC0000000089/art-619/par-1</sup>
      If a lessee continues to make use or take the profits of the thing after the expiration of the term of the lease and a lessor that knows of the same raises no objection, it is presumed that a further lease is entered into under conditions identical to those of the previous lease. In these cases, each party may give a notice of termination pursuant to the provisions of Article 617.

      **第二項**  従前の賃貸借について当事者が担保を供していたときは、その担保は、期間の満了によって消滅する。ただし、第六百二十二条の二第一項に規定する敷金については、この限りでない。
      <sup>art-619/par-2 · https://japanlaw.org/en/civil-code/art-619/par-2 · https://japanlaw.org/l/129AC0000000089/art-619/par-2</sup>
      If one of the parties has provided security for the previous lease, the security is extinguished upon expiration of the term; provided, however, that this does not apply to a security deposit prescribed in Article 622-2, paragraph (1).
