The plaintiff brought an action seeking an order vesting title to a portion of his parents' property, which he had used to operate a scrap yard business with his late father.
He claimed his parents had promised him the land and sought a constructive trust based on the principles in Soulos v. Korkontzilas.
The court dismissed the claim, finding insufficient evidence of a clear promise and concluding that the family's mutual assistance did not give rise to unjust enrichment, wrongful conduct, or an equitable obligation that would justify imposing a constructive trust.
