日本高等法院禁止同性婚姻的规则违宪,标志着法律的转变。 Japanese high court rules ban on same-sex marriage unconstitutional, signaling legal shift.

日本名古屋高等法院裁定,该国禁止同性婚姻的禁令违宪,标志着作出这一决定的第四高等法院。 The Nagoya High Court in Japan has ruled that the country's ban on same-sex marriage is unconstitutional, marking the fourth high court to make such a decision. 这项裁决支持下级法院的结论,即剥夺同性伴侣结婚的权利违反了《宪法》的平等条款。 The ruling supports a lower court's finding that denying same-sex couples the right to marry violates the Constitution's equality clause. 虽然法院驳回了一对同性夫妇的损害赔偿要求,但裁决表明,在日本,法律向承认同性婚姻权利的方向有重大转变。 Although the court dismissed a damages claim from a same-sex couple, the rulings signal a significant legal shift toward recognizing same-sex marriage rights in Japan.
