The case members in Japanese can be divided into ones that are necessary for the realization of the predicate meaning and ones that are not necessary. For example, in the sentence of "Taro-wa Hanako-to kekkon-shi-ta", the case member "Hanako-to" is a necessary element for the realization of the action of predicate "kekkon-shi-ta". But in the sentence of "Watashi-wa kare-to toshokan-e it-ta", the case member "kare-to" is not a necessary one for the realization of the action of predicate "it-ta". In this paper, we made a new proposal of how to distinguish the type of the case members from the viewpoint of the formation of the case-member cleft sentence. The cleft sentence is one type of the topic construction. There are 10 kinds of case member that can be made a comment of the cleft sentence in Japanese: go-case, wo-case, ni-case, to-case, de-case, φ-case, e-case, kara-case, made-case and yori-case. When go-case, wo-case and e-case are made comment of the cleft sentence, the case particles of these case members will surely disappear. The case particles of other case members may disappear or not. And the case particles of ni-case, to-case, kara-case and made-case sometimes cannot disappear. This paper distinguished the case members into two types - basic case member and non-basic case member - on the basis of whether the disappearance of the case particle is possible or not when the case-member cleft sentence is formed. The case particle of basic case member may disappear and that of non-basic case member may not disappear. To think of the limits of both types of the case members based on the same standard, the ni-case and φ-case of "time" and de-case of "place" and "cause", which are treated as secondary elements until now, are basic case member as well. In this paper, we also discussed several factors that affect the disappearance of the case particle. First, because of the co-appearance of other elements in the sentence, the original non-basic case member may be turned to basic case member or vice versa. This makes the case particle from appearance to disappearance or vice versa. Secondly, because of the predicate verb, different basic case member in the sentence sometimes selects same vocabulary. The omitting of higher-rank case member may affect the disappearance of the case particle of lower-rank case member that is made a comment of the cleft sentence. Thirdly, because of the speaker's intention of expression such as comparison, exclusiveness, etc., the case particle, which may disappear, is retained.
