Unjust Enrichment Restitution Statute Of Limitations in Michigan

Michigan's unjust enrichment restitution claims are subject to a three-year statute of limitations, as established by MCL § 600.5813. This provision governs the time within which a plaintiff must file suit to recover restitution for unjust enrichment, generally accruing when the benefit was received and retention became inequitable. The three-year period applies uniformly to such equitable claims, though the official source at Michigan Legislature's website provides the exact statutory language and any applicable exceptions. To determine how the limitations period applies to a specific set of facts, the DocketMath calculator can estimate the filing deadline based on the relevant accrual date and the three-year rule.
