第１ はじめに
強制執行とは、主に、民事裁判で確定された権利を実現す るため、民事執行法に基づく手続のことです。強制執行といっ ても、債権者が有する権利の内容に応じて、様々な方法が用 意されており、大別すると、金銭の支払を目的とする権利のた めの手続（金銭執行）と、金銭の支払を目的としない権利のた めの手続（非金銭執行）に分けることができます。金銭の支払 を目的とする権利としては、例えば、貸金返還請求権がありま すが、交通事故でケガをしたとして、加害者に治療費などを求 める損害賠償請求権も、これに該当します。他方で、金銭の支 払を目的としない権利としては、例えば、契約に基づき家具の 製造を求める権利などがあり得ます

I. Introduction
