As its name indicates, the North Carolina Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices Act (or “UDTPA,” for short) prohibits businesses from engaging in unfair or deceptive acts or practices. Violating the UDTPA subjects a defendant to potential treble (triple) damages, costs, and attorney's fees.

In return, the Raiders received 2019 first- and sixth-round sections and 2020 first- and third-round choices.
