Which remedy is associated with conversion of property?

The remedy associated with conversion of property is restitution of property. In conversion cases, the rightful owner has lost the use and possession of their property due to another person's wrongful act. The law aims to make the injured party whole by restoring them to the position they would have been in had the conversion not occurred.

Typically, restitution of property can involve requiring the converter to return the specific property taken or to compensate the owner for the value of the property at the time of the conversion, which is often evaluated as its fair market value. While fair market value can be a measure of damages in conversion, the primary remedy emphasizes the restoration of the property itself or its equivalent value, thus reinforcing the owner's right to possession.

Other remedies, such as specific performance, are generally applicable in contract disputes to compel a party to fulfill their obligations, not in cases of property conversion. Replevin is a legal action to recover specific goods wrongfully taken but is a means to bring back possession rather than a direct remedy for conversion itself.
