We’ll explore how courts use this doctrine to prevent unjust enrichment, ensuring that no one unfairly profits at the expense of another. Key cases like Webb v. McGowin shed light on the role of promises and benefits conferred in unusual circumstances. Tune in to learn about the limits of promissory restitution and when it applies.
