Assumpsit description |
---|
Assumpsit ("he has undertaken", from Latin, assumere), or more fully, the action of assumpsit, was a form of action at common law. The origins of the action can be traced to the 14th century, when litigants seeking justice in the royal courts turned from the writs of covenant and debt to the trespass on the case. * Throughout its long history, the action of assumpsit has been used to enforce what are now referred to as obligations arising in tort, contract, and (in some common law jurisdictions) unjust enrichment. Most significantly, it is out of the law relating to the action of assumpsit that the modern law of contract and of unjust enrichment emerged in the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries. |
