If you enter a plea deal do you have to take felony counts or through the settlement can you walk away without any felony counts and maybe a misdemeanor instead?

Assuming there are multiple counts charged..

Entirely jurisdiction and crime specific.

It depends on the jurisdiction. What is actually in the plea agreement?

Okay thanks - charges are as follows, counts of prescribing sched 4 controlled substance without medical necessity, counts on alleged incorrect information in chart to legitimize prescriptions, corporate enterprise counts associated to prescription of sched 4 counts.

Haven’t even gotten discovery yet though.

Definitely depends on the jurisdiction and degree of charge. In Texas, if charged with a SJF, typically can workout at 12.44(a) or (b) plea.

I am asked during this RE analyst interview to build a real estate model from scratch. My background is commercial banking and I am used to analyzing real estate deals from the lender side not the developer. The interviewer is generous I must say he’s giving me a few days to complete. However this model is for a ground up multifamily development. I have no prior experience building one. I can find models online but all very complexe to reproduce. How would you handle? Do you have model to share?

How do you all deal with the guilt of leaving a comany/ team? I have been working at Microsoft for 1 year now, and seriously considering moving. I find the code base to be very legacy and I mostly work on obscure bugs that I spend so much time on, mostly due to navigating this large code base and not having much docs to refer to. Hence I find the job slightly unsatisfying, and that I could learn more elsewhere. However, I love the wlb, the team and company culture. The guilt stops my applying.
