Forfeiture clause - Shikken Yakkan

Japanese: 失権約款 - しっけんやっかん
Forfeiture clause - Shikken Yakkan
A clause attached to a contract that automatically stipulates that in the event of the debtor's default on the debt, the debtor will lose all contractual rights or rights to specific objects without the creditor's special intention. It is often used in installment sales when the buyer is late in fulfilling the debt. Although it is an act that is conditional on default, it is against public order and good morals if it puts the debtor at an unfair disadvantage. The Installment Sales Act (1961) requires that a notice of at least 20 days be given to terminate the contract in the event of default, so to that extent, a forfeiture clause is excluded.

Japanese:
債務者の債務不履行の場合に,債権者の特別の意思表示なしに,当然に債務者が契約上の一切の権利または特定の物に対する権利を失うことを契約に付随して定める約款。割賦販売において買主に債務の履行遅滞があった場合になされることが多い。債務不履行を条件とする行為であるが,債務者を不当に不利に陥れるときは公序良俗に反することになる。割賦販売法(1961年)は債務不履行の場合の契約解除について20日以上の期間を定めて催告することを要求しているので,その範囲で失権約款は排斥される。
