Outline of Final Research Achievements

An obligee who has obtained a final and binding judgment with regard to a claim for delivery of an object may carry out compulsory execution against the third party who possesses the object on behalf of the obligor in a title of obligation (Article 23 Paragraph 3 of the Civil Execution Act). In this case, compulsory execution shall be carried out with regard to a claim for delivery against the obligor in a title of obligation and the third party who possesses the object is treated as the party (obligor) in the procedure.
An association without legal capacity may file an action for a registration of transfer of ownership to the representative of the association with regard to the real property which collectively belongs to all of the members of the association. In this case, the right to claim a registration belongs collectively to all of the members of the association and the association has standing to file the action.

民事執行法

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

請求の目的物の所持者に対する物の引渡執行について、そこで想定される実現されるべき請求権が債務名義上の債務者に対する請求権であることを示し、債務名義上の債務者以外の第三者に対する強制執行の一つのあり方を提示した。このことは、近時立法がされた子の引渡しの強制執行について、子が債務者以外の第三者に預けられている場合の強制執行の問題を考える際の理論的基礎になりうる。
権利能力のない社団における登記手続を求める訴訟について、登記請求権の帰属主体を明確にし、社団の原告適格の基礎を明らかにすることで、より一般に権利能力のない社団をめぐる訴訟の諸問題を考える際の基礎を示した。
