DOCKET NO. A-2047-19
STATE OF NEW JERSEY,
Plaintiff-Respondent,
v.
MICHAEL WING,
Defendant-Appellant.
_______________________
Submitted March 17, 2021 – Decided June 1, 2021
Before Judges Accurso and Enright.
On appeal from the Superior Court of New Jersey, Law
Division, Middlesex County, Indictment No. 13-10-
1340.
Joseph E. Krakora, Public Defender, attorney for
appellant (Monique Moyse, Designated Counsel, on the
brief).
Yolanda Ciccone, Middlesex County Prosecutor,
attorney for respondent (Nancy A. Hulett, Assistant
Prosecutor, of counsel and on the brief).
PER CURIAM
Defendant Michael Wing was indicted on charges of third-degree
endangering the welfare of a child, N.J.S.A. 2C:24-4(a) and fourth-degree
criminal sexual contact, N.J.S.A. 2C:14-3(b). He entered a negotiated guilty
plea to the sexual contact charge in exchange for the State's dismissal of the
endangering count and recommendation of an eighteen-month sentence
consecutive to the one he was then serving. Defendant admitted that while
incarcerated at the New Jersey Training School for Boys in Jamesburg in August
2013, he forced onto his penis the hand of a fourteen-year-old boy. Defendant
was then twenty-two. The State had provided defendant in discovery a video
allegedly capturing the offense.
Defendant signed plea forms advising him he could be civilly committed
for life upon completion of his term of incarceration. The judge also addressed
the possibility of civil commitment with defendant during the plea colloquy
pursuant to State v. Bellamy, 178 N.J. 127, 139 (2003) (holding "[t]he failure of
either the court or defense counsel to inform defendant that a possible
consequence of a plea to a predicate offense under the [Sexually Violent
Predator] Act is future confinement for an indefinite period deprives that
defendant of information needed to make a knowing and voluntary plea"). The
A-2047-19
2
plea transcript reflects their broader exchange regarding the plea forms
defendant signed.
THE COURT: Mr. Wing, I have a plea form in front of
me and the plea form talks about you entering a guilty
plea to the fourth degree crime of criminal sexual
contact in Count 2. The max anybody can get on a
fourth degree in the State of New Jersey is 18 months;
and the maximum fine, but it's not a mandatory fine, it's
$10,000. I'm not gonna hit you with that, I'm hitting
you with the minimum fines. Do you understand that?
DEFENDANT: Yes.
...
THE COURT: The next page says are you presently
serving a custodial sentence on another charge?
DEFENDANT: Yes.
THE COURT: And do you understand that a guilty plea
may affect your parole eligibility?
DEFENDANT: Yes.
THE COURT: Now, important, the more serious
charge will be dismissed at the time of sentencing and
your plea bargain says 18 months consecutive to the bid
that you're doing right now having to do with prior
aggravated sexual assaults, correct?
DEFENDANT: Yes.
THE COURT: Now, so we're on the same page,
Megan's Law applies, Megan's Law applies — do we
have to do the forms and everything here?
A-2047-19
3
THE PROSECUTOR: Yes, we did the supplemental
form that we saw that dealt with that type of thing.
THE COURT: Okay.
THE PROSECUTOR: I don't know if there's an
additional one.
THE COURT: I don't know either. Parole supervision
or anything comes into play?
THE PROSECUTOR: We checked the parole
supervision for life statute. I don't see that the statute
falls under it —
THE COURT: All right.
THE PROSECUTOR: — aggravated criminal sexual
contact
THE COURT: Right, because it's a fourth degree. But
Michael Wing, you know about Megan's Law, right?
DEFENDANT: Yes.
DEFENSE COUNSEL: He's on it.
THE COURT: Right, because you're on it, that's
exactly right. So this is just a continuation of your
responsibilities under what you already are under which
is Megan's Law, correct?
DEFENDANT: Yes.
...
THE COURT: Is he forcing you, [Defense Counsel]
forcing you or threatening you to plead guilty?
A-2047-19
4
DEFENDANT: No.
THE COURT: Are you satisfied with him as your
lawyer?
DEFENDANT: Yes.
THE COURT: Michael Wing, so far you have any
questions?
DEFENDANT: No.
THE COURT: You could talk to me, you know. I've
been hanging out with you for the last hour, haven't I?
DEFENDANT: You did.
THE COURT: That's all right, as long as you're good,
but I'm here for you to break it down. That form was
the appeal rights form. I'll talk about that at the time of
sentencing, and I'll go over it. This one says you're
doing a bid — it really doesn't apply, other than say by
happenstance they kick you out of the jail that you're in
and you post bail on this case and you get out of jail,
this form says you understand I'm gonna give you a
court date and you better be here for that court date if
you're not locked up. That's what that's all about, do
you understand that?
DEFENDANT: Yeah.
THE COURT: And then this is the Megan's Law form,
and I'll just do it one more time. Megan's Law,
Michael, it's all about knowing where you're at. It's
forcing you to do something responsible by letting
everybody know where you're at and the problems that
you can confront or face if you don't take care of
A-2047-19
5
business, that the law hits you with the possibility of
getting more punishment. So it's real simple, right?
DEFENDANT: Yeah.
...
THE COURT: Civil commitment, Michael, we'll talk
about too now. Do you understand that if you're
convicted of this criminal sexual contact, and there's a
specific finding on the record that based on the
circumstances of the case this offense should be
considered a sexually violent offense, you may upon
completion of your term of incarceration be civilly
committed to another facility for up to life if the court
finds, after a hearing; that you are in need of
involuntary civil commitment. Do you understand
that?
DEFENDANT: Yes.
THE COURT: But it's real simple. One of us judges
are part of that whole — they just can't do that to you.
They have to do a real serious court hearing on even
trying to do that to civilly commit you; you understand
that? So you have rights, they can't just do that to you;
do you understand that?
DEFENDANT: Yes.
Two things of note occurred at defendant's sentencing. First, the judge
addressed with defendant his account of the offense in the presentence report.
That report was not made a part of the record on appeal, and we are thus unaware
of its contents. And second, defendant addressed what he believed would occur
A-2047-19
6
at the end of his eighteen-month sentence. The transcript reflects the following
colloquy.
THE COURT: I read the Presentence Report last night.
And when I got to page three, more particularly, in the
defendant's version, the defendant stated he does not
admit doing anything. That was a denial I thought.
And so the first thing I needed to do was try to
correct it or not try; correct it so that I'm not sentencing
an innocent man to State Prison. That's the most
important thing.
...
THE COURT: Mr. Wing, you have now been sworn
again under oath. Mr. Wing, do you want to correct
that statement?
DEFENDANT: Yes.
THE COURT: What do you want to say, sir?
DEFENDANT: That what was said was not actually
true. I did make him do the things I said I did.
THE PROSECUTOR: Which is what?
DEFENDANT: Forced him to touch my penis.
THE PROSECUTOR: And you know [the victim] is
14?
DEFENDANT: Yes.
THE PROSECUTOR: Okay. And you forced him to
put his hand on your penis?
A-2047-19
7
DEFENDANT: Yes.
THE PROSECUTOR: And that's the truth?
DEFENDANT: Yes.
THE PROSECUTOR: Okay.
DEFENSE COUNSEL: And that's what you were
telling the court on the day of your guilty plea. Correct?
DEFENDANT: Yes.
THE PROSECUTOR: Just out of curiosity, why did
you tell the Reporter that you didn't do it or you didn't
admit to doing anything wrong?
DEFENDANT: Because I don't like telling my
business to anyone.
DEFENSE COUNSEL: Were you embarrassed?
DEFENDANT: Basically.
THE COURT: Good reason.
THE PROSECUTOR: Okay.
DEFENSE COUNSEL: Judge, I would ask the court to
adopt the negotiated plea, make the correction on page
three. My client is serving a sentence right now.
Apparently, he's not entitled to any jail time or gap time
credit. This actually happened while in custody. I'm
going to ask the court to sentence him to 18 months
consecutive. Thank you.
A-2047-19
8
...
THE PROSECUTOR: Obviously, you read the
Presentence Report.
...
THE PROSECUTOR: And, you know, when you look
at Mr. Wing, he actually seems like a likeable, pleasant
person; but if you look at his prior history and the fact
that he was in a facility when he did this, incarcerated
when he did this, you see that there's a pattern,
obviously, of him doing this type of conduct. So there's
a risk that he will commit another offense, obviously.
He has a prior record, so aggravating factors three and
six apply; and then there is a need to deter Mr. Wing
and others from committing this type of conduct again
or any illegal conduct.
Three, six and nine are factors that apply. I don't
think any mitigating factors apply. We worked out this
plea so he could plead to the fourth degree, not the third
degree; so it's a fourth-degree sexual contact
conviction, only 18 months incarceration, consecutive.
We think that's a fair resolution. Thank you.
THE COURT: Thank you. Mr. Wing, you have a right
to speak. And for your benefit, I did read the
Presentence Report and you've had it rough. When the
defendant tells me that they had the worst childhood, I
could understand why you would say that based upon
me reading the Presentence Report.
But, Mr. Wing, and it's my understanding that
you're looking forward to going to Avenel so they can
deal with this issue.
DEFENDANT: I'm already there.
A-2047-19
9
THE COURT: You're there?
DEFENDANT: Yes.
THE.COURT: Mr. Wing, you have a right to say
something. What do you want to say, sir?
DEFENDANT: I don't know. I just want to thank you
for your decision that you made. When this 18 months
is finished, I'll be heading — I'll come home, been
going since I was 16; do my time, do my time. That's
the way I see it.
The judge found aggravating factors three, the risk defendant would
commit another offense, N.J.S.A. 2C:44-1(a)(3), and nine, the need to deter
defendant and others from violating the law, N.J.S.A. 2C:44-1(a)(9). He
declined to find aggravating factor six, the extent of defendant's prior criminal
record and seriousness of the offenses of conviction, N.J.S.A. 2C:44-1(a)(6).
The judge found no mitigating factors. He dismissed the third-degree
endangering charge in accordance with the plea agreement and sentenced
defendant to eighteen months in State prison on the fourth-degree criminal
sexual contact charge, consecutive to the sentence defendant was then serving.
Four months later, the judge amended the judgment of conviction to find
defendant's "conduct was characterized by a pattern of repetitive and compulsive
behavior," that he was amenable to sex offender treatment and was to comply
with Megan's Law.

Defendant did not file a direct appeal of his sentence. Three-and-a-half
years later, after being civilly committed to the Special Treatment Unit as a
sexually violent predator pursuant to the Sexually Violent Predator Act, N.J.S.A.
30:4-27.24 to -27.38,1 defendant filed a pro se Post Conviction Relief (PCR)
petition contending he would not have pleaded guilty but for his attorney's
ineffective assistance. Specifically, defendant averred he told his attorney he
"did not do the offense," and that the two had watched the video together, which
defendant claimed "shows [he] didn't do anything." He also maintained he
would not have pleaded guilty had his attorney advised him "about civil
commitment." Defendant contended his lawyer "did not speak with [him] about
it." Defendant acknowledged the judge addressed it, saying he told him a
"little," but claimed he "thought it didn't apply to [him], because [his] attorney
didn't tell [him] about civil commitment."
1
In addition to not having been provided the presentence report, we were not
provided the State's petition for civil commitment or the judgment declaring
defendant a sexually violent predator, although the record appears to indicate
the judge reviewed all three before rendering a decision in this matter.
A-2047-19
11
Defendant was appointed counsel, who apparently filed an amended
petition and a supplemental certification by defendant,2 which was eventually
heard by the same judge who took his plea. The supplemental certification
fleshes out the averments in defendant's original petition. In it, defendant
asserted that prior to entering the plea, he and his attorney reviewed the video
the State intended to rely on at trial, which defendant again claimed "did not
show [him] doing anything wrong." Defendant insisted he told his lawyer he
was innocent and did not want to plead guilty. He claimed, however, his lawyer
"insisted that going to trial was not possible in this case because [defendant]
would most certainly lose," and that after several such discussions he "felt as if
[he] had no choice but to plead guilty," because his attorney would "never have
defended [him] at trial."
Defendant acknowledged his lawyer reviewed a plea form with him before
he entered his plea, but maintained the lawyer "never explained to [him] that
[he] could be civilly committed after [he] finished [his] sentence. More
importantly, [counsel] never told [him] that [he] could be committed for the rest
of [his] life." Defendant claimed the first he heard about civil commitment was

We say apparently because the copy of the amended petition in the appendix
is unsigned and undated and the supplemental certification, while signed, is also
undated. Neither document bears a file stamp.
A-2047-19
12
from the judge during the plea colloquy. Defendant averred the judge
"explained to me that I would not face such a penalty because my plea was only
to fourth degree contact. According to what the court told me, I understood a
penalty like that would only apply to other serious offenders and not to me."
Defendant claimed that had he known "civil commitment was a possibility, [he]
never would have entered a guilty plea in this case" because he was innocent of
the offense "and . . . would have taken [his] case to trial."
Defendant's counsel filed a brief in support of the amended petition
arguing that the trial "court's description of the consequences" defendant "faced
and the standard for the possibility of a civil commitment were incorrect,
misleading and failed to underscore the true consequences" to defendant.
Specifically, counsel argued the "legal standard from the plea form," that the
judge read to defendant "was completely negated" by the court's further
comments. Counsel claimed the judge's advice to defendant about civil
commitment was "they can't just do that to you," when "[i]n fact, they can." He
argued that statement was "clearly meant to lessen the blow of what is
undeniably a substantial punishment. By making this statement, the court states
directly that the courts cannot do what the paragraph in the plea form says they
can do."
A-2047-19
13
Defense counsel continued the argument, quoting the judge's statement to
defendant that "[t]hey have to do a real serious hearing on even trying to do
that." Counsel rhetorically asked, "[w]hat is a 'real serious hearing' as opposed
to any other hearing before the court?" Counsel claimed the "implication is that
such a hearing would be even more 'serious' than" the hearing the court was
conducting to accept defendant's guilty plea. Counsel argued the judge was
telling defendant "these things in order to ease his mind and assure him that such
a serious hearing would protect him from being civilly committed," which was
not true.
Arguing the judge "hammer[ed] the point home even further," by telling
defendant "you have rights, they can't just do that to you," counsel contended
the remarks had the effect of assuring defendant "that even though [civil
commitment] sounds like a possibility, [defendant's] 'rights' would prevent that
from ever happening." Counsel argued, as he did at oral argument before the
judge on the petition, that the way the court worded the advice to defendant
required by Bellamy, looked at from defendant's perspective, implied to him that
the prospect of civil commitment was "something that's . . . extremely difficult
and something that he wouldn't even have to worry about because he's pleading
guilty to a fourth-degree contact, not the third-degree endangering."
A-2047-19
14
In response, the judge asked counsel whether he found the language "that
way." When counsel replied he did, the judge stated, "I didn't mean it that way."
The judge stated he "wasn't minimizing" the risk of civil commitment to
defendant by those remarks, but intended "to convey the opposite." The judge
explained he was "actually trying to enhance" for defendant the seriousness of
the threat, as he saw civil commitment as "much more serious" than defendant's
eighteen months in State prison for a fourth-degree crime.
Defense counsel countered, respectfully, that "the opposite is true," it is
"the conviction itself is what is very influential to [the SVP] court." He argued
what the court should have underscored for defendant was that it was the plea
colloquy defendant was engaged in that was important. "[T]he guilty plea itself
is what makes the decision so serious. That's what he wasn't told. And this is
the opposite of that . . . . He should have been told specifically, you pleading
guilty to this makes it serious." Counsel argued the court told defendant "they
can't just do that to you," but, in fact, "they can and they did. That's exactly
what they did. They took this guilty plea . . . and that's what they used to civilly
commit him. So when you say, well, they have to do a serious hearing, no, they
seriously look at the conviction [defendant] pled guilty to."
A-2047-19
15
Although not having filed a motion to permit defendant to withdraw his
plea, counsel's main argument to the court was that its remarks during the plea
colloquy misinformed defendant about the real risks of civil commitment
inhering in the plea, thereby depriving him of critical information necessary for
its knowing and voluntary entry under Rule 3:9-2. Counsel also argued
defendant was entitled to an evidentiary hearing on his claims his counsel never
discussed civil commitment with him and pressured him into pleading guilty,
notwithstanding defendant's insistence of his innocence.
The judge acknowledged in the course of the argument he had not seen
many cases in which a defendant's guilty plea to a fourth-degree offense
precipitated the State's petition for civil commitment, and that he did not know
"why they did this to [defendant]." When counsel asked to be allowed to submit
the civil commitment documents if the court was "concerned about the precise
reasons" for defendant's commitment, the court advised he had already requested
the file and would "get it today." At the conclusion of the argument, the judge
advised he wanted to review the transcript again and would send the parties his
decision.
The judge issued his written decision more than six months later. After
fairly detailing defendant's contentions and the applicable law, the judge
A-2047-19
16
concluded he properly instructed defendant about the possibility of civil
commitment under Bellamy. Specifically, the judge found
defendant was told that although he does have
constitutional rights, he was advised that he could be
civilly committed following a serious court proceeding.
The defendant was not misled by the court, nor was the
possibility of civil commitment diminished by the
court's instruction. The defendant acknowledged he
understood this before the guilty plea was accepted.
As to the ineffective assistance claim, the court found defendant failed to
demonstrate his counsel was ineffective under the first prong of the Strickland3
standard. The judge found
[p]lea paperwork shows that counsel underlined the
civil commitment portion of the forms. The defendant
was asked whether any other promises were made to
him in connection with the plea to which he stated none
were. The defendant was also asked if he was satisfied
with his attorney and indicated he was. There is no
evidence to support the defendant's claims that trial
counsel was ineffective and forced him to take a plea.
Defendant appeals, contending
MR. WING IS ENTITLED TO AN EVIDENTIARY
HEARING ON HIS CLAIM THAT HIS ATTORNEY
RENDERED INEFFECTIVE ASSISTANCE OF
COUNSEL BY FAILING TO INFORM HIM
ADEQUATELY OF THE CIVIL COMMITMENT
CONSEQUENCES OF HIS PLEA, AND BY
PRESSURING HIM INTO PLEADING GUILTY. IN

17
THE ALTERNATIVE, HE SHOULD BE ALLOWED
TO WITHDRAW HIS PLEA AS IT WAS NOT
KNOWING OR VOLUNTARY DUE TO DEFENSE
COUNSEL'S LACK OF ADVICE AND THE TRIAL
COURT'S MISADVICE REGARDING CIVIL
COMMITMENT.
Although defendant did not make a formal motion to withdraw his plea
based on what he claims was misinformation by the trial judge as to the risk of
civil commitment, we have no doubt it was central to his claim that both his
counsel and the court failed to correctly advise him of the plea's consequences,
precluding a finding the plea was entered knowingly and voluntarily under Rule
3:9-2.
An application to withdraw a plea and a claim of ineffective assistance of
counsel although often related, as these were, are distinct and must be analyzed
separately because they are governed by different rules, judged under different
standards and are grounded in different clauses of the constitution. State v.
O'Donnell, 435 N.J. Super. 351, 368-69 (App. Div. 2014). A motion to
withdraw a plea is governed by the four-factor Slater4 test, while an ineffective
assistance of counsel claim is governed by the two-prong Strickland standard.
The claims are ordinarily also subject to different standards of review. While a
4
State v. Slater, 198 N.J. 145, 157 (2009).
A-2047-19
18
decision on a plea withdrawal motion is ordinarily reviewed only for an abuse
of discretion, State v. Simon, 161 N.J. 416, 444 (1999), a court's failure to have
analyzed the claim under the correct test will trigger de novo review, see
Manalapan Realty, L.P. v. Twp. Comm. of Manalapan, 140 N.J. 366, 378 (1995)
(explaining the "trial court's interpretation of the law and the legal consequences
that flow from established facts are not entitled to any special deference"); cf.
State v. Green, 236 N.J. 71, 81 (2018) (noting "appellate review is de novo when
the court should have, but did not perform a [State v.]Cofield,5 analysis").
Similarly, while our review of a PCR court's fact findings following the
taking of testimony is "necessarily deferential," State v. Nash, 212 N.J. 518, 540
(2013), "in the absence of an evidentiary hearing, a reviewing court may exercise
de novo review of 'the factual inferences drawn from the documentary record,'"
State v. Hooper, 459 N.J. Super. 157, 180 (App. Div. 2019) (quoting State v.
Harris, 181 N.J. 391, 421 (2004)). Because the court did not analyze defendant's
claim that he was misadvised as to the consequences of his plea by the court
under Slater, perhaps owing to counsel's failure to make a formal motion to
withdraw the plea, and did not conduct an evidentiary hearing on his ineffective
assistance claim, our review of both is de novo. See Harris, 181 N.J. at 415
5
127 N.J. 328, 338 (1992).
A-2047-19
19
(noting a reviewing court is not bound by and gives no deference to the legal
conclusions of the trial court).
Applying those principles here, we conclude the appropriate course is to
vacate the trial court's decision and remand for an evidentiary hearing on
defendant's claims. As our Supreme Court has noted, "[o]ur system of criminal
justice is not infallible." Nash, 212 N.J. at 540. Having reviewed the transcript
of the plea colloquy, which we have quoted at length, we have no doubt the
judge conscientiously attempted to explain to defendant, in language defendant
could understand, he faced indefinite civil commitment as a collateral
consequence of his plea to fourth-degree criminal sexual contact for which he
was to serve eighteen months. But we also do not find implausible defendant's
claim that he understood that explanation to mean "a penalty like that would
only apply to other serious offenders and not to [him]."
Although the transcript of the PCR proceeding makes clear the court heard
and considered defense counsel's arguments that the court's own remarks to
defendant during the plea colloquy, which defendant claimed was his only
advice on those collateral consequences, misled him about the risk of civil
commitment inhering in the plea, and it was concerned enough about what
occurred to review the file of the civil commitment proceeding before rendering
A-2047-19
20
a decision,6 that consideration is not reflected in the court's written opinion
issued six months later. There, the court only perfunctorily concluded that
"defendant was not misled by the court, nor was the possibility of civil
commitment diminished by the court's instruction." Why the court came to that
conclusion, viewing defendant's averments, as required, in the light most
favorable to him, State v. Preciose, 129 N.J. 451, 462-63 (1992), is not
explained.
Further, while it is clear that someone underlined criminal sexual contact
on the supplemental plea form question about civil commitment, defendant
acknowledged his counsel reviewed the plea form with him. That fact does not
establish that defendant's claim that his counsel never explained he could be
civilly committed for the rest of his life by pleading guilty to this fourth-degree
offense is false.
6
We have already remarked about the documents not included in the appendix.
Although we see no error in the PCR court's desire to review the civil
commitment here, counsel or the court should have made the petition and the
judgment, or whatever other documents the court reviewed, a part of this record.
The court should not review or rely on any documents in rendering its decision
it does not make part of the record. See N.J. Div. of Youth & Fam. Servs. v.
J.Y., 352 N.J. Super. 245, 264 (App. Div. 2002) (noting a trial judge's review of
documents not made part of the record deprives a reviewing court of a complete
record on appeal, inhibiting the appellate process).
A-2047-19
21
The court was incorrect to find there was "no evidence to support
defendant's claims that trial counsel was ineffective and forced him to take a
plea." Defendant's certification made on personal knowledge is evidence.
Moreover, certain statements by defendant at the time of these events, his refusal
to admit guilt when interviewed for the presentence report and his statement at
sentencing thanking the court and saying he would be heading home "[w]hen
this 18 months is finished," lend some credibility to his claims.
To be clear, we do not suggest by our discussion that defendant has
established his plea was not knowing and voluntary under Rule 3:9-2, or that he
received less than competent representation or was in any way prejudiced by the
representation he received. We conclude only that he has established the right
to present his claims at an evidentiary hearing and have the court consider them
under Slater and Strickland.
In order to permit the court to consider defendant's claim that he was
misinformed about the collateral consequences of his plea, defendant should be
accorded the opportunity to file a properly supported motion to withdraw his
plea on remand. If, after hearing the evidence, the court is satisfied defendant
did not understand the consequences of his plea, or would not have pleaded
A-2047-19
22
guilty had his counsel properly advised him of the risks of civil commitment, it
shall permit defendant to withdraw his plea and reinstate the charges.
Vacated and remanded. We do not retain jurisdiction.
