Travel within new York state while on county level probation
I plead guilty to an ''E'' Felony in
county court in Saratoga county within
new York state.
I received probation and one term
states I cannot leave the jurisdiction of
the court without permission of the
court or the probation department.
Does this mean that I can travel
around new York state at will or that I
need permission to leave Saratoga
county?
I was told by someone that a county
level court has jurisdiction throughout
the entire state...however when I had
an initial meeting with the probation
department they mentioned that
leaving Saratoga county was a
privilege and not a right.
I spoke to a lawyer who said that
although county courts have
jurisdiction throughout the state the
probation department could still
require me to remain within the
county. He said this is because
another probation condition stated I
had to follow the directions of the
probation department.
However these two conditions seem to
contradict themselves.

Your best bet and most exact answer will come from your probation officer.
