indebiti solutio

from Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856)
INDEBITI SOLUTIO, civil law. The payment to one of what is not due to him. 
If the payment was made by mistake, the civilians recovered it back by an 
action called condictio indebiti; with us, such money may be recovered by an 
action of assumpsit.
