Formulating the issueRussian civil law does not contain specific rules about the beginning of the limitation period for the unjust enrichment claims. Therefore, the conclusion is that the general rule should be applied. According to it the limitation period starts from the day when the injured person knew or should have known about its rights violation and about the figure of violator (hereinafter — «violation») (para. 1 of Art. 200 of the Civil Code of Russian Federation) (hereinafter — CC RF). It is assumed that the injured person knew or should have known about the certain violation at the time of the violation. Exceptions to this procedure for determining the starting point of the limitation period should only be prescribed by legislative acts.However, analysis of the unjust enrichment obligation’ features allows us to conclude that the specific relationship of unjust enrichment still has an impact on the procedure for calculating the commencement of limitation period, which is not always taken into account by applicants. That’s generates disputable situations.
