The applicant and respondent, father and son, jointly owned a property used for their auto body business.
The applicant sought an unequal distribution of the proceeds from the property's sale, claiming unjust enrichment because his corporation paid all expenses and improvements since 2005.
The court dismissed the application, finding the claim was statute-barred under the Real Property Limitations Act because the cause of action arose in 2007-2008 when the respondent refused to transfer title.
Alternatively, the court found the applicant failed to prove unjust enrichment, as the corporation, not the applicant personally, incurred the expenses, and there was a juristic reason for the respondent's retention of the benefit.
