Grand Larceny in Pulaski County

Grand larceny defendants in Pulaski County are convicted in about 56 percent of cases, slightly below Virginia's statewide average of 55 percent dismissal rate. The 43.6 percent dismissal rate here is marginally lower than the state average of 45 percent, suggesting Pulaski County prosecutors pursue these cases with comparable vigor to other jurisdictions across Virginia. No defendants were acquitted at trial in the dataset, meaning all non-dismissals resolved through plea agreements, which occurred in 56.4 percent of total cases.

Cases move through Pulaski County relatively quickly, with a median disposition time of 113 days. When convictions occur, sentences average nearly four years (1,373 days), with the median at just over four years (1,460 days). Charge reductions are uncommon—only 4.8 percent of cases saw the grand larceny charge reduced to something lesser. When reductions did happen, half involved downgrading to unauthorized use of a motor vehicle as a misdemeanor, suggesting those cases involved vehicle theft rather than other property crimes.
