Enrichment by Wrongful Disposition
Enrichment by wrongful disposition refers to a legal concept where one party benefits at another party's expense without a legal basis for that benefit. For example, if someone takes property that belongs to another person and uses or sells it, they are unjustly enriched. The law recognizes this situation and allows the original owner to seek compensation or restitution. Essentially, it ensures fairness by preventing individuals from profiting from wrongful actions at the expense of others.
