OPINION

McKEE, Circuit Judge.

Roslyn Porter appeals the judgment the trial court entered in favor of defendants following a two-day bench trial in a suit she brought alleging various violations of federal and state law. For the reasons that follow, we will affirm.

As we write primarily for the parties who are familiar with this litigation, we need not detail the factual or procedural background. Rather, we only note that Porter alleged causes of action under the Truth in Lending Act (“TILA”), 15 U.S.C. § 1601 et seq., the Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act (“HOEPA”), 15 U.S.C. § 1639, and the Pennsylvania Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law (“UTPCPL”), 73 Pa. Cons.Stat. § 201-1 et seq. Each of her claims arise from a credit life insurance policy that she purchased when she took out a residential mortgage. During the course of this litigation, and after the conclusion of the two day bench trial that resulted in the defense verdicts, the district court entered numerous Orders and Memorandum Opinions that thoroughly and succinctly explained why it was rejecting Porter’s legal arguments, and why she was not entitled to relief against any of the entities she had sued. See Porter v. Nationscredit Consumer Discount Company, Civ. No. 03-03768 (E.D.Pa. Feb. 9, 2004); 2004 WL 1753255 (E.D.Pa. July 8, 2004); 229 F.R.D. 497 (E.D.Pa.2005); 2005 WL 1819974 (E.D.Pa. Aug. 1, 2005); 2006 WL 851307 *872 (E.D.Pa. March 31, 2006); 2006 WL 1737544 (E.DJPa. June 22, 2006); 2006 WL 3333837 (E.D.Pa. Nov. 14, 2006); 2007 WL 30117 (E.D.Pa. Jan. 3, 2007); 2007 WL 674709 (E.DJPa. Feb. 28, 2007).

Alter reviewing the record and the arguments raised on appeal, we conclude that the arguments Porter raises merit no further discussion, and we will affirm the rulings of the district court substantially for the reasons set forth in the applicable Orders and Memorandum Opinions.
