A graphic proposition of an action of the law of restitution:
“Restitution has focused for some time on picking off the wounded animals which crouch at the edges of the conceptual herd of equity, like lions near the water-hole: resulting trusts, equitable tracing and so forth.” (Hudson, Alastair, A Consideration of Restitution of Unjust Enrichment, With Particular Reference To Its Application To Proprietary Remedies And The Law of Trusts, pp. 8-9)
