1. Choice of Law: Did the lower court err in applying Louisiana law to the plaintiffs claims despite the explicit choice-of-law provision in the Service Agreement, which mandates that Texas law governs this matter?

2. Statutory Employer Defense: Are the defendants entitled to immunity under the statutory employer doctrine given that they are not signatories to the Service Agreement that purportedly grants such immunity?

3. Jurisdictional Deficiency: Did the court of appeals properly assert jurisdiction over the case considering the defendants' failure to timely file a notice of appeal, thereby undermining the court's authority to hear the appeal?

4. Necessity of Discovery: Considering the ongoing discovery process and the uncompleted depositions of key witnesses, should the Court grant a continuance to ensure a thorough evaluation of all relevant evidence before ruling on the defendants' motion for summary judgment?
