Das Bereicherungsverbot

Ausdruck der Trennung von Schaden und Haftung

[Prohibition of Enrichment. An Expression of the Separation between Damage and Liability.]

Published in German.

Compensatory damages are not meant to enrich the person who suffered the damage. As an acknowledged cornerstone of German law, this so-called prohibition of enrichment conflicts with the recognition of foreign judgements on punitive damages. It not only marks the border between lump sum damages and contractual penalty or between indemnity insurance and wagers but also between compensatory and punitive damages.
