NY Grand Larceny Sentencing Calculator.

Select the felony class or offense degree, your prior record, and any aggravating factors shown on the page. The tool applies New York Penal Law §70.00 and offense-specific statutes to estimate the likely minimum and maximum term.

No. Judges have discretion within the statutory range, and plea bargains often resolve below the maximum. This calculator shows the framework under PL §70.00 - your specific facts, prior record, and negotiation strategy determine the final number.

A conviction carries consequences beyond jail time, fines, and treatment. These are called collateral consequences or invisible punishments. They can affect jobs, housing, public benefits, citizenship, education, and student loans - even if you did not know about them when negotiating a plea. In some cases, even an arrest can trigger collateral consequences before any conviction. Theft and fraud convictions create licensing, housing, and employment barriers that often outlast the jail or prison term. Common examples include: Restitution orders - courts order repayment to victims; unpaid restitution can become a condition of probation or parole. Employment licenses - more than 100 New York jobs require a state license, registration, or certification. Convictions can block or revoke licenses for real estate brokers, stockbrokers, nurses, accountants, security guards, and many other occupations. Employment - retail, banking, fiduciary, and cash-handling positions become difficult with a theft or fraud record. Aggregated value across incidents can turn a misdemeanor pattern into a felony with longer NYCHA waiting periods. Relief may be available through a Certificate of Relief from Disabilities (any number of misdemeanors or violations, but no more than one felony - same-day felonies in one court count as one), a Certificate of Good Conduct (two or more felonies, or public-office applications), CPL §160.59 sealing of up to two convictions after ten years, or conditional CPL §160.58 sealing after completing court-recognized drug treatment. Requesting a CRD at sentencing can restore the right to apply for jobs, licenses, and public housing you would otherwise be barred from - approval is not guaranteed, and you must still disclose the conviction on applications.
