  RESTITUTION AND UNJUST ENRICHMENT 3D



Generally

Cal.App.2022.  Cit. generally in case cit. in disc. City sued football league and member clubs, alleging,
inter alia, that defendants were unjustly enriched when they relocated a member club to a different city,
resulting in member club increasing in value and football league receiving a relocation fee. The trial
court sustained defendants' demurrer. This court affirmed, holding that plaintiff failed to state a claim
for unjust enrichment, because it failed to allege that it had a better legal or equitable right to member
club's increase in value and league's relocation fee. The court noted that state law frequently looked to
the Restatement of Restitution and the Restatement Third of Restitution and Unjust Enrichment in
analyzing unjust-enrichment claims. City of Oakland v. Oakland Raiders, 299 Cal.Rptr.3d 463, 479.

                            CHAPTER 1. GENERAL PRINCIPLES

§ 1. Restitution and Unjust Enrichment

C.A.2, 2022. Com. (b) quot. in ftn. Administrative agent for a loan taken out by debtor sued lender's
loan managers, alleging that plaintiff was entitled to the return of funds it mistakenly paid to defendants
on behalf of debtor. The district court entered judgment for defendants. This court vacated and
remanded, holding that defendants were not entitled to retain plaintiff's payment under the discharge-
for-value rule, because defendants had constructive notice that plaintiff sent the funds by mistake, and
defendants failed to demonstrate that the underlying debt was due at the time of the mistaken payment.
Citing Restatement of Restitution § 163 and Restatement Third of Restitution and Unjust Enrichment §
1, the court noted that plaintiff was not deprived of its property rights because it mistakenly transferred
its funds into defendant's possession, because mistakenly conveyed property was held in constructive
trust. Citibank, N.A. v. Brigade Capital Management, LP, 49 F.4th 42, 84.

Colo.App.2022.  Quot. in case quot. in sup. Construction contractor sued homeowners, alleging that
defendants breached the parties' construction agreement by refusing to pay plaintiff for work performed
on improving defendants' home. The trial court, among other things, entered judgment in part for
plaintiff. This court affirmed in part, holding that, while plaintiff materially breached the parties'
agreement by failing to complete the agreed-upon work in a timely fashion, it was not barred from
recovering under a theory of unjust enrichment. Citing Restatement Third of Restitution and Unjust
