Re:	Honest Receipt?

Yup, I think I have got it. One ("knowing receipt") is a cause of action - i.e., the plaintiff says: "you have to give the money back because when you received it, you knew you had no right to it"; and the other ("honest receipt") is a plea by the defendant who says: "look, when I received the money I thought 'honestly' that I was entitled to it". Am I right? Gracias amigo!

I don't understand your question.
'Knowing receipt' is a claim, though poorly named. 'Honest receipt' is a suggested defence, which has been rejected by the courts.
