Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 3259

Receipt of what is not due. Sufficient, as a general rule, to impose an obligation of restitution on the recipient. Reason thereof. The latter is considered to be unjustly enriched at another's expense. The criterion for absence of entitlement is to view it from the recipient's perspective - 605 - Obligation, not the payer's perspective. It is immaterial whether the absence of entitlement is attributable to the factual situation itself or arises from a legal consideration. Articles 263, 264, Civil Code.
