This is an entirely incomplete definition and describes only two type of contructive trust (that arising in restitution or for wrongs), and not others such as remedial constructive trusts, and cases in which the terminology of contstructive trust is used to describe associational trusteeship.

Completely - I agree it is dreadful. I have tried to clean up some major parts but am now getting very tired and will return to it later. It's a big job.--Jeremybrennan 21:13, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Constructive Trust
Very True, it does have some good points, but its focus is too much on Commonwealth Law, US Common Law and from their Schizoid states like California and Louisiana would be helpful to show the varying degree of contructive trusts.
- It is a bit eerie actually; this article reads just like the lecture note handouts for that portion of the restitution course on the BCL at Oxford. I may have missed my guess, but I'd bet good money that is where the first draft of this article came from. Legis 16:09, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Jurisdictions
This article needs to explain that the approach is different in different jurisdictions. Currently it misleads as to the role of Constructive Trusts in England, where they are not used as a remedy for unjust enrichment. DavidCBrannan (talk) 13:51, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
