A short version article from Kyodo...

きょうもたくさんの判決が出された…いつも月末はそうなんだが、裁判所ではまた忙しい日となった。
この日の大きめの方の話は…

以下、共同の短い記事…(和訳は略)

◆Court dismisses state damages to war-displaced Japanese
TOKYO, Jan. 30 KYODO
The Tokyo District Court on Tuesday rejected a demand from 40 war-displaced Japanese nationals for compensation from the state for failing after World War II to swiftly repatriate them from China and provide adequate support once they returned.
''Damage suffered by the plaintiffs should be seen as coming from the war, and this court cannot reasonably acknowledge the state's legal obligation to swiftly repatriate them to Japan,'' Presiding Judge Kenichi Kato said in the ruling.


And another judge ruled that Governor Shintaro Ishihara misused public money for meals... I had to rush to read the judgement papers and write up the stories for timely broadcasting... it's always a killer to read a bundle of papers in minutes and write'em up! Posted by Picasa

もう1つの判決は石原慎太郎知事がメシのために公金を違法に使ったと判断…。急いで判決文を読んで、放送に間に合わせるために原稿を突っ込まないといけなかった…いつも数分で文章の束を読んで書き上げるのはマジできついよ!
