1Opinion of the CourtGraber, J.
This civil case involves the Unlawful Debt Collection Practices Act (UDCPA), ORS 646.639, and the federal Truth In Lending Act (TILA), 15 USC § 1601 et seq. Plaintiff, a lawyer, brought this action against his former client to collect fees for services rendered. Defendant counterclaimed, contending (among other things) that plaintiff had violated UDCPA and TILA. The trial court dismissed those counterclaims for failure to state a claim. ORCP 21A(8). On appeal, the Court of Appeals reversed. Porter v. Hill, 108 Or App 418, 815 P2d 1290 (1991). We reverse the decision of the Court of Appeals.
