2026See Barboza, 115 N.J. at 421 (explaining the factual basis requirement "serves a variety of purposes," including preventing defendant from entering an unknowing plea and providing a record for appellate review of the plea conditions); see also State v. Taccetta, 200 N.J. 183, 198 (2009) (noting this requirement serves to "ensure[] that innocent people are not punished for crimes they did not commit").

2021"The principal purpose of the factual-basis requirement of Rule 3:9-2 is to 'protect a defendant who is in the position of pleading voluntarily with an understanding of the nature of the charge but without realizing that his conduct does not actually fall within the charge.'"

2026State v. Campfield, 213 N.J. 218, 231-32 (2013) (concluding the factual basis requirement of a guilty plea does not need to "follow a 'prescribed or artificial ritual,'" rather it "should be examined in light of all surrounding circumstances . . . ." (quoting State ex rel.

State v. John Tate (072754)green

2021"The principal purpose of the factual-basis requirement of Rule 3:9-2 is to 'protect a defendant who is in the position of pleading voluntarily with an understanding of the nature of the charge but without realizing that his conduct does not actually fall within the charge.'" Tate, 220 N.J. at 406 (quoting Barboza, 115 N.J. at 421 ).

2017Thus, before accepting a guilty plea, "the trial 4 A-4222-15T2 court must be 'satisfied from the lips of the defendant that he committed the acts which constitute the crime.'" A factual basis for a plea must include either an admission or the acknowledgment of facts that meet "'the essential elements of the crime.'" [ 220 N.J. 393, 406 (2015) (emphasis added and citations omitted).] The elements of the per se violation, which is the form of driving while under the influence to which defendant pled guilty, are straight forward.

2017To lack any basis in law or in fact, there must be either no legal authority to support the claim or the absence of a factual basis for the claim. 11 A-2651-13T3 The applicable standard is similar to that for Rule 1:4-8, which authorizes a sanction for an assertion made in a paper filed with the court when "no rational argument can be advanced in its support, or it is not supported by any credible evidence, or it is completely untenable."
