Ministry of Justice translation — Japanese Law Translation Database System **第二項** 前項の異議の申立ては、審判に付すべき事由がないことを理由としてすることはできない。 art-17-2/par-2 · https://japanlaw.org/en/juvenile-act/art-17-2/par-2 · https://japanlaw.org/l/323AC0000000168/art-17-2/par-2 The objection referred to in the preceding paragraph may not be filed on the reasoning that there are no grounds for referring the case to trial and decision.

In this case, a judge who was involved in the ruling of prior instance may not participate in giving this ruling. Ministry of Justice translation with a slip corrected by this site — not the Ministry's text; the Ministry printed: "A ruling by the family court, on the objection referred to in paragraph (1), must be made by a panel. In this case, a judge who was involved in the order of prior instance may not participate in giving this ruling." — https://www.japaneselawtranslation.go.jp/en/laws/view/4827/tb **第四項** 第三十二条の三、第三十三条及び第三十四条の規定は、第一項の異議の申立てがあつた場合について準用する。この場合において、第三十三条第二項中「取り消して、事件を原裁判所に差し戻し、又は他の家庭裁判所に移送しなければならない」とあるのは、「取り消し、必要があるときは、更に裁判をしなければならない」と読み替えるものとする。 art-17-2/par-4 · https://japanlaw.org/en/juvenile-act/art-17-2/par-4 · https://japanlaw.org/l/323AC0000000168/art-17-2/par-4 The provisions of Articles 32-3, 33 and 34 apply mutatis mutandis to a case in which the objection prescribed in paragraph (1) is filed. In this case, the phrase "revoke the ruling given in the prior instance, and remand the case to the court of prior instance, or transfer the case to another family court" in Article 33, paragraph (2) is deemed to be replaced with "revoke the ruling given in the prior instance, and a further judicial decision must be made if it is deemed necessary."
