Question Presented (from Petition)

Does a criminal defense attorney provide prejudicially ineffective assistance of counsel by failing to initiate plea negotiations with the prosecutors where such negotiations would be likely to yield a substantially better outcome for the defendant than would going to trial or, instead, does counsel's plea-negotiation obligation arise only if the prosecutors first initiate plea negotiations and make a plea offer?
