Abstract
Background. The article examines the process of the emergence and strengthening of Russian regional judicial bodies in the post-reform period on the example of the Ryazan province. The relevance of the disclosure of this problem is determined both by the need to study the existing positive historical experience of reforming management structures, and by modern needs for improving the activities of the judicial system. The objectives of the work include an attempt to identify and characterize the causes and circumstances that contributed to the reform of judicial authorities at the regional level. Of considerable interest is the analysis of the evaluation of the effectiveness of judicial activity in the context of the transition to an all-academic jurisprudence. New tasks required changes in approaches to recruitment and personnel management in judicial institutions. Materials and methods. Archival and documentary sources of the late 19th century, as well as the works of modern researchers, are used as the basic materials of the study. The methodological basis is the dialectical principles of scientific cognition and a systematic approach, which includes methodological tools at various levels. Results. The result of the study was the disclosure of the main activities of the Ryazan District Court in the first decades of its existence. Conclusions. The main conclusion is that the implementation of the judicial reform of the second half of the 19th century should be assessed as an integral part of an integral system of administrative and legal transformations in the context of the transition from the feudal to the bourgeois state and society. Of particular interest are the local regional features of the implementation of these processes.
