Offers a cogent framework to the English courts approach when resolving conflicts between restitution claims and countervailing legal entitlements.
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 as IEG v Zurich Insurance and Avonwick Holdings Ltd v Azitio Holdings Ltd clearly 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.
This book is a valuable treatment of the particular enrichment-interaction questions which it addresses. It is also, more generally, an example of scholarship on interaction in private law to which others could look for guidance. For rising to the hard task he set himself, and devoting his efforts to thorny questions that really matter, Dr Krishnaprasad is to be congratulated and thanked. * Edinburgh Law Review *
