Estoppel

Japanese: エストッペル
Estoppel
Translated as estoppel. A principle in Anglo-American law. It prohibits asserting facts that contradict one's own actions or sealed deeds. For example, if A believes a representation made by B and changes his/her position based on that, B cannot later reverse his/her position on the grounds that his/her representation was untrue. This principle is particularly important in transaction law. Similar provisions can be found in the Japanese Civil Code (apparent agency, etc.) and Articles 9 and 14 of the Commercial Code.
