<sup>art-92 · https://japanlaw.org/ja/domestic-relations-case-procedure-act/art-92 · https://japanlaw.org/l/423AC0000000052/art-92</sup>

        **第一項**  抗告裁判所は、家事審判事件（別表第二に掲げる事項についての審判事件を除く。）の全部又は一部が原裁判所の管轄に属しないと認める場合には、原審判を取り消さなければならない。ただし、原審における審理の経過、事件の性質、抗告の理由等に照らして原審判を取り消さないことを相当とする特別の事情があると認めるときは、この限りでない。
        <sup>art-92/par-1 · https://japanlaw.org/ja/domestic-relations-case-procedure-act/art-92/par-1 · https://japanlaw.org/l/423AC0000000052/art-92/par-1</sup>
        When the court in charge of an appeal finds that the whole or part of a case for adjudication of domestic relations (excluding adjudication cases regarding the matters set forth in Appended Table 2) is not subject to the jurisdiction of the court of prior instance, it must revoke the ruling in prior instance; provided, however, that this does not apply if it finds that there are special circumstances where it is appropriate to maintain the ruling in prior instance in light of developments in the proceedings, the nature of the case, the reasons for an appeal and other matters.

        **第二項**  抗告裁判所は、家事審判事件が管轄違いであることを理由として原審判を取り消すときは、その事件を管轄権を有する家庭裁判所に移送しなければならない。
        <sup>art-92/par-2 · https://japanlaw.org/ja/domestic-relations-case-procedure-act/art-92/par-2 · https://japanlaw.org/l/423AC0000000052/art-92/par-2</sup>
        When the court in charge of an appeal revokes the ruling in prior instance on the grounds of lack of jurisdiction over a case for adjudication of domestic relations, it must transfer the case to the family court which has jurisdiction over the case.
