i have this check box in a alertdialog. when i try to check the state of the checkbox, the application force closes. any idea why?

LayoutInflater factory = LayoutInflater.from(NewActivity.this);
        final View textDisplayView = factory.inflate(R.layout.nearestlocs, null);
        final AlertDialog.Builder newAlert = new AlertDialog.Builder(NewActivity.this);
        newAlert.setView(textDisplayView);

        final CheckBox checkBoxLab = (CheckBox) findViewById(R.id.checkboxlab);
newAlert.setPositiveButton("Display on Map",
                new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton) {

                if(checkBoxLab.isChecked()){
                    libDisplayFlag = true;
                }
