The Supreme Court held that the validity of the rule of the short-term acquisitive prescription should be judged on whether or not the first occupant in the period had started the occupation in good faith without fault. According to the rule of this judicial precedent, it may happen that a succeeding the first occupant in good faith without fault shall obtain the ownership of that land at the expense of the original owner's interest on the ground of his/her occupation for less than ten years. It must be unfair for the original owner to be forced to lose his/her legitimate title in such a short period of time, and the owner should be given an opportunity to argue his/her title before completion of the short-term acquisitive prescription. This paper will examine the precedent and suggest that the occupant in bad faith or carelessness should be restricted to claim his/her interest for this kind of case.}, pages = {169--186}, title = {瑕疵ある占有を併合主張した場合における10年取得時効の成立の可否 : 最高裁昭和53年3月6日判決}, volume = {35}, year = {2006} }
