In criminal sentences such as terms and conditions of probation handed down in the county court (I.E Albany county court) what is meant by "jurisdiction of the court". For example if a probation condition says "do not leave the jurisdiction of the court without permission" does that refer to the specific county (I.E. Albany county) or does that refer to New York State itself?

As I understand it "the county court" is a state court which has branches in each of the counties of New York State, so does that mean that "jurisdiction of the court" refers to New York State?
