A: It looks like you might be asking about two different things here - one being moving forward with discovery (hearing for evidence) and the other, requesting a trial. The difference is meaningful because one depends on the completion of the other, and it looks like an important case ($100K). It would be a good idea to consult with a Louisiana attorney.
