Question Presented (from Petition)

1. Did the Fifth Circuit deviate from paramountcy of Supremacy Clause, federal laws and this Court's on-the merits-based final pretrial judgment precedent when it adopted the district court's qualified immunity-based summary judgement in favor of a non-State, non-governmental, non-open-enrollment Defendant and its employee, in the absence of a clearly established applicable law?

2. Did the Fifth Circuit diverge from accurate interpretation of the clearly established EEOC's and TWC's statute of limitations for Title VII, state-laws tort and § 1981 claims when it opined affirming the district court's "time-barred" ground entry of summary judgment, unmindful of Appellant's timely and distinctly filed lawsuit in federal and state courts?

Question Presented (AI Summary)

Did the Fifth Circuit deviate from paramountcy of Supremacy-Clause, federal-laws, final-pretrial-judgment, qualified-immunity, summary-judgment
