"County Court

The County Court is located in each county outside New York City. It is authorized to handle the prosecution of all crimes committed within the county. It has exclusive authority to handle trials in felony matters and shares authority with the local city, and town and village courts to handle trials in misdemeanor cases (offenses punishable by less than one year in prison) and other minor offenses and violations. The County Court also has limited authority to hear civil cases involving monetary awards of $25,000 or less."

"Supreme Court

The Supreme Court in New York State has unlimited, original jurisdiction, but generally hears cases that are outside of the jurisdiction of other courts. Its caseload includes civil matters beyond the monetary limits of the lower courts’ jurisdiction, divorce, separation and annulment proceedings, and equity suits, such as mortgage foreclosures and injunctions."
