PER CURIAM

Appellant seeks reversal of a judgment committing her to the custody of the Mental Health Division for a period not to exceed 180 days. See ORS 426.130. In her first assignment of error, appellant contends that the trial court plainly erred when it failed to advise her of the possible results of the commitment hearing as required by ORS 426.100(1). Specifically, she asserts that the trial court plainly erred when it failed to advise her of the possibility of voluntary treatment or conditional release. In response, the state con-cedes that, under State v. M. M. , 288 Or. App. 111, 405 P.3d 192 (2017), and State v. M. S. R. , 288 Or. App. 156, 403 P.3d 809 (2017), the trial courts failure to advise appellant of all of the possible results of the proceeding as required by ORS 426.100(1) is plain error and requires reversal. We agree, accept the states concession, and, for the reasons set forth in M. M. and M. S. R. , exercise our discretion to correct the error. Our disposition of appellants first assignment of error obviates the need to address her second assignment of error.

Reversed.
