Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The following 2 conclusion were able to be achieved: 1) There are cases where res judicata should be granted not only on the level of the object of lawsuit but also on the level of the reasoning of the judgement. 2) Among the dimentions where res judicata works, the one where the object of the first lawsuit is contrary to that of the second tends to be expanded both in Japan and in Germany. But there is a difference between the German and Japanese systems in that in Germany res judicata are understood to work as ne-bis-in-idem, whereas in Japan through res judicata the first judgement is supposed to make the basis for the second lawsuit, which makes it difficult to treat the case in which the object of the first and second lawsuit are contrary to eachother. Therefore this case is to be treated with high descretion within the context of Japanese Civil Procedure.
