<upd_detl>I think "national review" is the most correct and official translation, but I don't really understand what our clarification is supposed to 
convey.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>The word "national review" doesn't appear to 
be used for this kind of referendum outside 
Japan so I think it's ok to just describe what 
this means in the context of Japan, as nikk 
and daijs do. (by not mentioning "other legal 
matters")

It's a little wordy but I don't think it's 
"encyclopedic", it's still denser and has less 
info than any of the kokugo entries. It can 
maybe be shortened a little but I think we 
shouldn't trim out any of this information</upd_detl>

Tokyo District Court holds first hearing on 
expats' right to vote on Supreme Court 
justices
Five Japanese living abroad claimed at the 
Tokyo District Court on Monday that their 
inability to participate in national reviews 
of Supreme Court justices was 
unconstitutional.
