Grand Larceny cases in Steuben County result in conviction at a rate nearly identical to the statewide average, with 81.6% of the 203 cases ending in guilty verdicts compared to a statewide dismissal rate of 18.5%. What stands out is the trajectory: dismissal rates have climbed significantly from zero in 2019 to 23.1% by 2024, suggesting prosecutors or courts have become more selective about which cases proceed to conviction. No defendants were acquitted, meaning cases that didn't result in convictions were dismissed rather than decided by juries.

Pretrial conditions heavily favor release, with nearly two-thirds of defendants released on their own recognizance without bail. Among those held, the median bail is set at $50. The most striking feature is charge reduction: 57.4% of Grand Larceny charges were reduced, predominantly to Petit Larceny in about 68% of those reductions. Among convicted defendants, sentences are distributed across multiple outcomes—27.9% received probation, 24.8% received prison time, and 15.5% received jail sentences, indicating courts apply varied approaches rather than a standard sentence type.
