This article presents an in-depth analysis of the regulatory and legal framework governing the functioning of the court administration system in Ukraine, the primary objective of which is to establish the organizational conditions necessary for the fair, independent, and impartial administration of justice. The concept of legal regulation is analyzed in detail as a process of organizing social relations through regulatory legal acts. Particular attention is devoted to the structural and organizational, substantive, subjective, and objective aspects of the regulatory and legal support underpinning the court administration system. The article highlights the multilayered and extensive nature of the current legal framework, emphasizing its efficiency and adaptability to contemporary challenges, as well as its significance for the development of the judiciary in Ukraine. The role of the Constitution of Ukraine as the foundational legal basis of the national legal system is identified. Moreover an analysis is provided of the by-laws and regulations governing the functioning of the court administration system. Significant attention is devoted to the analysis of international legal acts and treaties that form part of Ukraine's national legislation, ensuring high standards in the field of judicial proceedings. It is established that the alignment of the court administration system with international legal instruments takes into account the distinctive characteristics of the national justice system and legal traditions. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the Association Agreement between Ukraine and the European Union facilitates the reform of Ukraine's judicial system in accordance with European standards and serves as a driving force in its Europeanization process.
