Unjust Enrichment
"What is the statute of limitations for unjust enrichment?"
Quick Answer
Unjust enrichment occurs when a person retains money or benefits that in justice and equity belong to another, without a valid legal ground. The enriched party must return the benefit.
Scope and Legal Distinctions
Unjust enrichment concerns a benefit obtained without a valid legal basis, subject to its own conditions and defences. It is not a substitute for every failed contractual damages claim.
What to Check in Practice
Trace the payment or benefit, absence of legal basis and recipient's position; review restitution scope and the applicable limitation rules.
