action for money had and received

Read a random definition: effective possession

A quick definition of action for money had and received:

Action for money had and received is a type of legal action where one party sues another to recover money that was paid to the defendant, but the plaintiff believes they are entitled to it. This can happen if the money was paid by mistake or under duress, or if the consideration for the payment was insufficient. Essentially, the plaintiff is saying "you have my money and you shouldn't, so give it back."

A more thorough explanation:

Action for money had and received is a type of legal action where a plaintiff can recover money paid to the defendant. This money is usually recoverable because it was paid by mistake or under compulsion, or because the consideration was insufficient. For example, if a person pays for a service that was not provided, they can bring an action for money had and received to recover the payment.

Another example is if a person pays a debt that was already paid, they can bring an action for money had and received to recover the payment. This type of action is based on the principle of unjust enrichment, which means that a person should not be allowed to keep money that they did not earn or deserve.
