Arrest data is derived from the Division of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS) Computerized Criminal History (CCH) system. CCH contains arrests for offenses where fingerprints are required to be taken (Criminal Procedure Law 160.10). Arrest information is submitted by police departments and sheriffs’ departments. Arrests involve individuals 18 or older when the alleged crime was committed.

State law requires the Division of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS) and the Office of Court Administration (OCA) to provide information to the public that details pretrial release decisions made by judges upon arraignment, including release on recognizance, bail, or non-monetary conditions, as well as remand to custody.

DCJS and OCA coordinated and compiled one comprehensive data file to meet the statutory reporting obligations because neither agency maintains all the data necessary to fulfill the requirements under the bail reform law. Data within the file include the sex, race, and ethnicity of the individual arrested; the most serious arrest charge; the number and type of charges the individual has faced previously; and if the individual failed to appear in court or was re-arrested while the case was pending, among other data. The information provided does not identify the individuals charged.

This file contains data from Jan. 1, 2020, through Jun. 30, 2024, as reported by New York City criminal courts (excluding community courts), 61 city and two district courts outside of New York City, and all Superior Courts, which started reporting data in 2021. An additional file contains data from Jul. 1, 2023, through Jun. 30, 2024, for town and village justice courts outside of New York City.

DCJS and OCA also coordinated and compiled a Supplemental Pretrial Release Data File, which details cases arraigned in 2019, prior to the bail law changes, and cases arraigned from 2020 through 2023.

State law requires adults convicted of certain crimes to register as sex offenders. Registration occurs upon an individual’s release to the community. The number of adults required to register are shown by risk level, county of residence and other categories. These data are updated monthly.

Adults Required to Register by County and Risk Level (5/2/2025)

State law sets three risk levels, which are determined by a judge after a court hearing: Level 1 (low risk of repeat offense), Level 2 (moderate risk of repeat offense) and Level 3 (high risk of repeat offense). A designation of P (pending) means that a judge has not yet determined risk level. Any questions about these data should be directed to pressinfo@dcjs.ny.gov.

A sentence to probation allows individuals convicted of crimes to remain in the community under conditions mandated by the court and monitored by probation departments in 57 counties and New York City. Judges also may impose a split sentence, which is a term of local jail incarceration followed by probation supervision. New York State regulates and funds Probation Departments, however, supervision of individuals is a local responsibility.

Adults Under Probation Supervision by County (4/2024)

Adults under supervision are shown annually for the past five years and by conviction type, sex, and race/ethnicity for the most current year. See data notes for more information.

• Adults Under Supervision Annually for the Last Five Years

These cases may remain in Youth Part or be transferred to, also referred to as removed to, Probation and/or Family Court.

• Juvenile Offender (JO) and Adolescent Offender (AO) Youth Part Activity and Court Case Outcomes (5/2024)

Juvenile Delinquent Probation Intakes

Probation departments are responsible for screening juvenile delinquent (JD) cases for Family Courts to determine whether JD petitions should be filed, or cases can be adjusted (also known as diverted). This process is referred to as probation intake. The JD classification is assigned at arrest to cases involving youth who are 12 through 15 years old and charged with committing misdemeanor offenses and nearly all felony offenses. JD cases also include 16- and 17-year-olds who are charged with misdemeanors, and 16- and 17-year-olds who are charged with felonies (adolescent offenders) and whose cases are removed from the Youth Part of Criminal Court.

These data are presented by region and county:

• Juvenile Delinquent Probation Intakes Opened by Race/Ethnicity, Sex and Age (4/2024)
• Juvenile Delinquent Probation Intakes Closed by Race/Ethnicity (4/2024)

Probation Supervision

Probation supervision may be imposed by the Family Court after a delinquency finding or by the Youth Part of Criminal Court after a criminal conviction or youthful offender adjudication. Probation supervision allows these youth to remain in the community under conditions specified by the court and supervised by the local probation department.

These data are presented by region and county:

• Youth Probation Supervision Cases Opened by Race/Ethnicity, Sex and Age (4/2024)
• Youth Probation Supervision Cases Closed by Race/Ethnicity (4/2024)

Family Courts handle cases involving youth who are 12-17 and have a juvenile delinquency (JD) petition filed after a referral from a presentment agency: either the New York City Corporation Counsel’s Office or a County Attorney’s Office in the counties outside of New York City. These cases include those involving 16- and 17-year-olds charged with felonies (adolescent offenders) and 13-, 14-, and 15-year olds charged with certain serious felonies (juvenile offenders) that were removed from Youth Part of Criminal Court to Family Court.

These data are presented by region and county:

• Initial Petitions Filed by Race/Ethnicity, Sex and Age (4/2024)
• Initial Petitions Disposed by Race/Ethnicity (4/2024)

This dashboard contains data on juvenile delinquency (JD) cases in New York State by race and ethnicity and county. The number and racial/ethnic breakdown of cases are shown for the following case processing points in the juvenile justice system: probation intakes opened, probation intakes referred to the presentment agency, probation intakes adjusted, petitions filed in Family Court, petitions resulting in a JD finding, petitions resulting in no JD finding, and probation supervision cases opened. The JD classification in the youth justice system refers to the following types of cases:

• Youth 12- to 15-years-old charged with a misdemeanor or felony offense;
• Youth 16- to 17-years-old charged with a misdemeanor; or
• Youth 16- to 17-years-old charged with a felony (“Adolescent Offender”) whose cases are removed from the Youth Part of Criminal Court to Probation or Family Court.

Data represent the count and percent of cases by race/ethnicity at each case processing point in the juvenile justice system. Data represent cases at each point, not unique individuals. Data do not follow individual youth through the juvenile justice system.

For race/ethnicity, five categories are displayed: White, Black, Hispanic, Other Race/Ethnicity, and Not Reported. All cases involving youth of Hispanic ethnicity are reported in the Hispanic category, regardless of race. The Other Race/Ethnicity category includes cases of youth who are Asian/Pacific Islander, American Indian/Alaskan Native, or Other Race. Not Reported reflects cases that are missing data on race/ethnicity.

• Youth Justice Trends by Processing Point (4/2024)

This section presents juvenile justice data compiled prior to full implementation of the state law that raised the age of criminal responsibility to 18 over a two-year period. Among other changes implemented as a result of the law:

• 16- and 17-year-olds are no longer fingerprinted when arrested for misdemeanor crimes. As a result, these arrests are no longer reported by police agencies to the state (effective Oct. 1, 2018, for 16-year-olds and Oct. 1, 2019, for 17-year-olds).
• 16- and 17-year-olds arrested for felonies, known as adolescent offenders, are initially processed in the Youth Part of Criminal Court. Cases either remain in the Youth Part or are transferred to Probation Departments and/or Family Courts.
