Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York

Geographical jurisdiction of county courts within new York state?

I will begin probation after I am

sentenced next week for a ''E'' felony.

A common probation term is that a

person cannot leave the jurisdiction of

the court however I have had

conflicting answers regarding whether

a county court's jurisdiction ends at

the county line or extends throughout

new York state.

Now of course I will discuss the matter

with the probation department and my

lawyer.

However does anyone have a

comment regarding where a county

court's jurisdiction ends in new York

state?
