ON MOTION TO DISMISS
NEESE, District Judge.
This is a civil action for damages as a result of alleged deceit in connection with the private sale of a residence. 28 U.S.C. § 1332(a)(1). The plaintiffs assert claims under the common-law tort of deceit and also under the provisions of the Tennessee Consumer Protection Act of 1977 (the Act), T.C.A. §§ 47-18-101 et seq. The defendants moved for a dismissal of such latter claim, ostensibly for the failure of the plaintiffs to state a claim upon which relief can be granted, Rule 12(b)(6), Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Such motion lacks merit.
