Next February the Washington and Lee Law School will host a conference on "Restitution Rollout: The Restatement (Third) of Restitution and Unjust Enrichment." From the call for papers:
With the accolades at last month's American Law Institute meeting ringing in its ears, Restatement (Third) of Restitution and Unjust Enrichment (R3RUE) reached final form, subject only to conforming and editorial changes. This splendid achievement for the ALI, Reporter Andrew Kull, and all who assisted is now ready to face the curiosity and candor of the legal profession. In aid of that we issue this Call for Papers.
The Frances Lewis Law Center, the Washington and Lee Law Review, and the American Law Institute are delighted to sponsor a conference, Restitution Rollout: Restatement (Third) of Restitution and Unjust Enrichment, on February 25, 2011. Reporter Andrew Kull and ALI Director Lance Liebman will introduce R3RUE. The Washington and Lee Law Review will publish a R3RUE symposium issue featuring the conference papers.
The sponsors' goal is to encourage and recognize excellent legal scholarship on R3RUE and restitution. To advance their goal, the sponsors invite lawyers, judges, and scholars to submit papers on the brand-new restatement. A paper may praise or criticize the whole restatement or any particular section of it.
More information is available at the conference's website. Looks very exciting. And it reminds me that one of the many collateral benefits of Kull's work on the restatement was his re-discovery of the slavery restitution cases from the late nineteenth century.
