Law of JapanCapstone
Capstone: Elena Rossi and the Kyoto ceramics studio
Elena Rossi is an invented Italian ceramics designer who has moved to **Kyoto** and wants to build **Rossi Ceramica**, a small studio and shop. In one year, several things happen. She arrived as a **temporary visitor** and has been **working** in a local studio for pay. She now wants to **open her own business**. Her **landlord** refuses to return the **deposit** after she leaves a flat. She **dismisses** a Japanese employee, **Haruto**, with no reason and a day’s notice. A **distributor** has **registered her brand** as a trade mark in Japan before she did. And she is separating from her Japanese husband, **Takumi**, with whom she has a daughter of five. You advise Elena using the course and its three tools. Assume that everything is in **Japan**, that the facts are as stated and that Elena is in Japan at the time.
This course explains the law of Japan, not US law. Rules that look the same elsewhere may be different.

See what is included in the Courses & AI Lab Pass →General education on the law of Japan, using invented people and businesses. It states laws and procedures in simplified form and is not legal advice. The law and its practice change, and every case turns on its facts and on the authority concerned. It does not offer legal representation or a legal opinion on any case. Consult a Japanese-qualified attorney (bengoshi) for any real matter.
