<sup>art-14-12 · https://japanlaw.org/ja/local-tax-act/art-14-12 · https://japanlaw.org/l/325AC0000000226/art-14-12</sup>

  **第一項**  前三条の規定に基き地方団体の徴収金に先だつ質権又は抵当権により担保される債権の元本の金額は、その質権者又は抵当権者がその地方団体の徴収金に係る差押又は交付要求の通知を受けた時における債権額を限度とする。ただし、その地方団体の徴収金に優先する他の債権を有する者の権利を害することとなるときは、この限りでない。
  <sup>art-14-12/par-1 · https://japanlaw.org/ja/local-tax-act/art-14-12/par-1 · https://japanlaw.org/l/325AC0000000226/art-14-12/par-1</sup>
  The principal amount of a claim secured by a pledge or mortgage that takes precedence over local government levies pursuant to the provisions of the preceding three Articles is limited to the amount of the claim at the time when the pledgee or mortgagee received notice of the seizure or request for share distribution relating to those local government levies; provided, however, that this does not apply where it would prejudice the rights of a person who holds another claim that takes priority over those local government levies.

  **第二項**  質権又は抵当権により担保される債権額又は極度額を増加する登記がされた場合には、その登記がされた時において、その増加した債権額又は極度額につき新たに質権又は抵当権が設定されたものとみなして、前三条の規定を適用する。
  <sup>art-14-12/par-2 · https://japanlaw.org/ja/local-tax-act/art-14-12/par-2 · https://japanlaw.org/l/325AC0000000226/art-14-12/par-2</sup>
  If registration of an increase in the amount of the claim or the maximum amount secured by a pledge or mortgage is made, the provisions of the preceding three Articles apply as if, at the time of that registration, a pledge or mortgage had been newly created in respect of the increased amount of the claim or maximum amount.
