日本高等法院裁定禁止同性婚姻符合宪法,维持现状。 Japan's high court rules same-sex marriage ban constitutional, upholding the status quo.

东京高等法院于2025年11月28日裁定, 日本禁止同性婚姻的禁令是合宪的, A Tokyo High Court ruled on November 28, 2025, that Japan's ban on same-sex marriage is constitutional, marking the first high court defeat for marriage equality advocates in a series of six cases. 法院维持婚姻为男女之间的结合,驳回关于禁止婚姻违反了宪法规定的平等和个人自由权利的申诉。 The court upheld marriage as a union between a man and a woman, rejecting claims that the ban violates constitutional rights to equality and personal freedom. 该决定推翻了下级法院的裁决,与其他5项高等法院裁定禁止违宪的裁决形成对照。 The decision reversed a lower court ruling and stands in contrast to five other high court rulings that found the ban unconstitutional. 8名原告各索取100万日元的损害赔偿,但法院驳回了索赔要求。 Eight plaintiffs sought 1 million yen each in damages, but the court dismissed the claims. 日本仍是七国集团中唯一一个在法律上不承认同性婚姻的国家,最高法院预计可能在2026年发布最后裁决。 Japan remains the only G7 nation without legal recognition of same-sex marriage, with the Supreme Court expected to issue a final ruling possibly in 2026.
