handle is hein.ali/resndrn0020 and id is 1 raw text is: THE AMERICAN LAW INSTITUTE Fall 2025 Citations RESTITUTION 2D CHAPTER 1. UNDERLYING PRINCIPLES OF RESTITUTION § 1. The General Principle: Unjust Enrichment D.Md.2024. Cit. in sup. (general cite). Grandson, as representative of his deceased grandmother's estate, brought an unjust enrichment claim against pharmaceutical company, alleging that defendant was enriched by its receipt of grandmother's cervical cells that were obtained by third-party physicians without her consent and used by defendant to develop adeno-associated virus vectors for gene therapy. This court denied defendant's motion to dismiss and held that plaintiff stated a claim for unjust enrichment, rejecting defendant's assertion that plaintiff failed to plead that defendant was not a bona fide purchaser. The court noted that Maryland caselaw historically looked to Restatement Second of Restitution § 1 for the three elements of an unjust enrichment claim, which did not include a distinct requirement that a defendant was not a bona fide purchaser.
