(第三者の財産の没収手続等)
(Procedure for Confiscating Third-Party Assets)
第百二条第九十五条第一項の規定により没収すべき財産である債権等(不動産及び動産以外の財産をいう。次条及び第百四条において同じ。)が被告人以外の者(以下この条において「第三者」という。)に帰属する場合において、当該第三者が被告事件の手続への参加を許されていないときは、没収の裁判をすることができない。
Article 102(1)If the claim or similar asset (meaning an asset other than real property or movables; the same applies in the following Article and Article 104) that is subject to confiscation pursuant to the provisions of Article 95, paragraph (1) belongs to a person other than the accused (hereinafter referred to as a "third party" in this Article) and the third party is not allowed to participate in the proceedings of the case under public prosecution, it is not permissible to reach a judicial decision in favor of confiscation.
第九十五条第一項の規定により、地上権、抵当権その他の第三者の権利がその上に存在する財産を没収しようとする場合において、当該第三者が被告事件の手続への参加を許されていないときも、前項と同様とする。
(2)If there is a right of superficies, a mortgage, or any other third-party right on property that a person seeks to confiscate pursuant to the provisions of Article 95, paragraph (1) and the third party is not allowed to participate in the proceedings of the case under public prosecution, the preceding paragraph also applies.
金融商品取引法第二百九条の四第三項から第五項まで(第三者の財産の没収手続等)の規定は、地上権、抵当権その他の第三者の権利がその上に存在する財産を没収する場合において、第九十五条第二項において準用する同法第二百九条の三第二項(没収の要件等)の規定により当該権利を存続させるべきときについて準用する。この場合において、同法第二百九条の四第三項及び第四項中「前条第二項」とあるのは、「信託業法第九十五条第二項において準用する前条第二項」と読み替えるものとする。
(3)The provisions of Article 209-4, paragraphs (3) through (5) (Procedure for Confiscating Third-Party Assets) of the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act apply mutatis mutandis if there is a right of superficies, a mortgage, or any other third-party right on property that will be confiscated and that right must be allowed to continue to exist pursuant to the provisions of Article 209-3, paragraph (2) (Requirements for Confiscation) of that Act as applied mutatis mutandis pursuant to Article 95, paragraph (2).In this case, the phrase "paragraph (2) of the preceding Article" in Article 209-4, paragraphs (3) and (4) of that Act is deemed to be replaced with "paragraph (2) of the preceding Article as applied mutatis mutandis pursuant to Article 95, paragraph (2) of the Trust Business Act".
第一項及び第二項に規定する財産の没収に関する手続については、この法律に特別の定めがあるもののほか、刑事事件における第三者所有物の没収手続に関する応急措置法(昭和三十八年法律第百三十八号)の規定を準用する。
(4)Beyond what is specifically provided for in this Act, the provisions of the Act on Emergency Measures in Criminal Procedure to Confiscate Items Owned by Third Parties (Act No. 138 of 1963) apply mutatis mutandis to the procedures for confiscation of property prescribed in paragraphs (1) and (2).

Article 103The provisions of Article 209-5, paragraph (1) (Disposing of Confiscated Claims and Similar Assets) of the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act apply mutatis mutandis to a claim or similar asset that has been confiscated in connection with the crime referred to in Article 94, item (vii); the provisions of Article 209-5, paragraph (2) of that Act apply mutatis mutandis when a judicial decision to confiscate a claim that must be confiscated in connection with the crime referred to in that item becomes final and binding; and the provisions of Article 209-6 (Registration Based on a Judicial Decision in Favor of Confiscation) of that Act apply mutatis mutandis if the relevant institution is commissioned to register a transfer of rights based on a judicial decision in favor of confiscation in connection with the crime referred to in that item, for property requiring registration for a transfer of rights.
(刑事補償の特例)
(Special Provisions on Criminal Compensation)
第百四条第九十四条第七号の罪に関し没収すべき債権等の没収の執行に対する刑事補償法(昭和二十五年法律第一号)による補償の内容については、同法第四条第六項(補償の内容)の規定を準用する。
