Question Presented (from Petition)

1. Whether the Fifth Circuit exceeded its constitutional and appellate authority when it failed to review Petitioner's repeated objections to the subject matter jurisdiction of the district court which resolved the merits of the case before establishing its jurisdiction.

2. Whether the Fifth Circuit exceeded its authority in failing to give full faith and credit to an intervening and controlling decision by the Louisiana Supreme Court involving the same Defendants preclusive to the issue of the federal courts' lack of jurisdiction and necessitating remand of this case back to the Louisiana state court from which it was removed.

3. Whether the current law and jurisprudence is sufficient to deter Defendants from engaging in improper and/or wrongful removals when the benefits of removal far outweigh the risks.
