Legal Training and Research Institute

Japanese: 司法研修所 - しほうけんしゅうじょ
Legal Training and Research Institute

Established in 1947 as an affiliated institution of the Supreme Court, the institute handles the research and training of judges and the training of legal trainees (Article 14 of the Court Act). In particular, it plays an important role in the training of legal trainees. The Director of the Legal Training and Research Institute oversees the training, and ensures uniform, equal and fair training for all three legal professions (judges, prosecutors and lawyers).

In this regard, under the training system prior to World War II, judges and prosecutors were trained separately from lawyers, but after the war the two tracks were unified, making Japan's training system a groundbreaking one.

Japanese:

1947年(昭和22)最高裁判所の付属機関として設置され、裁判官の研究および修養ならびに司法修習生の修習に関する事務を取り扱う(裁判所法14条)。なかでも司法修習生の修習に重要な役割を果たしている。司法研修所長が修習を統轄し、法曹三者(裁判官、検察官、弁護士)の統一・平等・公正な修習を実施している。

 この点、第二次世界大戦以前の養成制度では判事・検事と弁護士とは別であったが、戦後二本立てを一元化して、日本の養成制度は画期的なものとなった。
