Final answer:
In the situation described, Felicity is subject to the jurisdiction of her local board, not obligated to comply with the out-of-state broker's demands without due process, she may file a counter complaint, and her license will not be immediately revoked due to an ethics complaint.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the scenario where Felicity's referral deal from out of state has fallen through, and an ethics complaint has been filed against her by the out-of-state broker, we can determine that a few options regarding what might be true of the situation. Primarily, we know that Felicity is subject to the jurisdiction of her local board, which means that any ethical complaints or proceedings are handled according to the rules and regulations of her local real estate board or licensing authority, regardless of where the complaint originates.
It is not automatically true that Felicity must comply with the out-of-state broker's demands unless it's proven that she has violated any contractual agreement or ethical guidelines that would require such compliance. Additionally, the assertion that Felicity cannot file a counter complaint is incorrect; she has the right to defend herself and file any counter complaints if she believes there has been a wrongdoing.
Lastly, it's not correct to assume that Felicity's license will be immediately revoked simply due to an ethics complaint. Professional licensure disciplinary actions require a formal process, which typically includes an investigation, a hearing, and a verdict, before any such revocation could potentially take place.
