California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Howard v. Bailey, c/w/ G054461, c/w/ G054552, G054270 (Cal. App. 2019):

remedies are available, including imposition of a constructive trust, rescission, and restitution, as well as incidental damages [citations]." (Hicks v. Clayton (1977) 67 Cal.App.3d 251, 264.) The court may also reject the use of equitable remedies in favor of damages (a remedy at law).
