      Except as otherwise provided, a ruling (excluding a ruling to dismiss a petition) becomes effective when notice thereof is given to a person subject to adjudication (if there are two or more persons subject to adjudication, one of these persons); provided, however, that a ruling against which an immediate appeal may be filed will not be effective unless it becomes final and binding.

      <sup>art-74/par-4 · https://japanlaw.org/en/domestic-relations-case-procedure-act/art-74/par-4 · https://japanlaw.org/l/423AC0000000052/art-74/par-4</sup>

      <sup>Ministry of Justice translation — Japanese Law Translation Database System</sup>

      **第五項**  審判の確定は、前項の期間内にした即時抗告の提起により、遮断される。
      <sup>art-74/par-5 · https://japanlaw.org/en/domestic-relations-case-procedure-act/art-74/par-5 · https://japanlaw.org/l/423AC0000000052/art-74/par-5</sup>
