The case concerned a claim for money had and received by a building society against a firm of solicitors to whom the society had paid money in connection with a mortgage loan transaction, which the firm had subsequently paid over to the borrower. The unjust factor pleaded was mistake - the society alleged that it had parted with the money because it had mistakenly believed the property against which the loan was secured to be more valuable than proved to be the case. Millett LJ rejected the action as 'entirely misconceived', for the reason that he did not think the society had been enriched by its receipt of the money: 'The money was trust money, which belonged in equity to the Society, and was properly paid by the firm into its client account. ... The firm did not receive the money for its own use and benefit, but to the Society's use. Given that the money was held to the order of the Society, the only question is whether the firm obtained a good discharge for the money. It is conceded that it did.' ________________________________________________________________________ Dr Charles Mitchell Lecturer in Law School of Law King's College London Strand LONDON WC2R 2LS tel: 0171 873 2290 fax: 0171 873 2465 e-mail: charles.mitchell@kcl.ac.uk >From swh10@cus.cam.ac.uk Fri Jun 26 17:12:15 1998 Received: from (ursa.cus.cam.ac.uk) [131.111.8.6] (cusexim) by maillist.ox.ac.uk with esmtp (Exim 1.82 #2) id 0ypc2o-0005xZ-00; Fri, 26 Jun 1998 17:12:14 +0000 Received: from swh10.christs.cam.ac.uk ([131.111.219.51] helo=swh10.cam.ac.uk) by ursa.cus.cam.ac.uk with smtp (Exim 1.950 #1) for restitution@maillist.ox.ac.uk id 0ypc2l-0001v0-00; Fri, 26 Jun 1998 18:12:11 +0100 Message-Id: <3.0.1.32.19980626181203.007ebca0@pop.cus.cam.ac.uk> X-Sender: swh10@pop.cus.cam.ac.uk X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.1 (32) Date: Fri, 26 Jun 1998 18:12:03 +0100 To: restitution@maillist.ox.ac.uk From: Steve Hedley Subject: Portman Building Soc v Hamlyn Taylor Neck In-Reply-To: <1.5.4.32.19980626162452.0066b81c@law-mail.kcl.ac.uk> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" At 17:24 26/06/98 +0100, Charles Mitchell wrote: >Members of the group may be interested to read Millett LJ's judgment in >Portman Building Soc v Hamlyn Taylor Neck (a firm), 22 April 1998, in >connection with the question whether a claim in unjust enrichment will lie >against a defendant who has received a plaintiff's property in circumstances >which are such that the plaintiff retains title to the property.
