Answer and explanation:

The Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA) of 1973 protects consumers from misleading information provided during the sale of a good or service. If a defendant is found liable in a DTPA lawsuit, the plaintiff is entitled to monetary damages for the recovery of economic damages, anguish damages, discretionary damages, and attorney's fees.
