Overview
The County Court is located in each county outside New York City. County Courts are authorized to handle the prosecution of all crimes committed within the county, having exclusive authority to handle trials in felony matters and sharing authority with the local town and village courts to handle trials in misdemeanor cases (offenses punishable by less than one year in prison) and other minor offenses and violations. The County Court also has limited authority to hear civil cases involving monetary awards of $25,000 or less.
