Unjust Enrichment and Countervailing Obligations
View through CrossRef
This book explores the relationship between the English law of unjust enrichment and legal obligations arising from other branches of the law.
It examines the question, primarily, by considering how English courts resolve conflicts between restitution claims and countervailing legal entitlements. This is much needed given recent cases such asIEG v Zurich InsuranceandAvonwick Holdings Ltd v Azitio Holdings Ltdclearly showing the differing positions taken by English courts on the question.
By applying insights from the theory of unjust enrichment to Anglo-Australian case law, this study gives a welcome cogent explanation of a complex question.
