State of New Jersey v. J.J.

12-11-07 A-2777-05T5

When, as part of a guilty plea, defendant is subject to
community supervision under Megan's Law, the court must ensure
that defendant understands the particular consequences of such
supervision. In this case, defendant was not informed that
Megan's Law would prevent him from living with his new wife and
her child. Therefore, defendant should have been allowed to
withdraw his guilty plea and proceed to trial on all the charges
contained in the indictments.
