Robbery in Monroe County
752 cases · Monroe County Courts · DCJS Data
In Monroe County, robbery cases result in conviction in about 68 percent of cases, which is higher than the statewide average suggests for this charge type. The county's dismissal rate of 28.1 percent runs notably above the statewide average of 21.5 percent—a 6.6 percentage point difference that indicates Monroe County prosecutors or courts dismiss robbery charges more frequently than the state as a whole. However, this dismissal advantage has eroded over time; the rate has dropped from 29.5 percent in 2019 to 23.3 percent in 2024, suggesting prosecutors have grown more likely to move forward with charges in recent years.
Charge reductions are a significant feature of how robbery cases resolve in Monroe County, affecting more than half of defendants. When reductions occur, prosecutors almost always downgrade to petit larceny (67.5 percent of reductions), with smaller numbers reduced to assault or weapons offenses. For those convicted, prison sentences dominate outcomes: 41.2 percent receive prison time, while 24.9 percent receive jail. At the pretrial stage, roughly a quarter of defendants face remand without bail, though nearly half receive bail set at a median of $10,000, and only 9.1 percent walk free on their own recognizance.
Dismissal rate includes judicial dismissals and cases dismissed in the interest of justice. Conviction rate includes guilty pleas and findings of guilt at trial. Avg duration measures arraignment to final disposition. Data sourced from New York DCJS Pretrial Release Data. Last updated: March 2026
