Abstract

Introduction. The article is devoted to the memorable date of the 160th anniversary of the Judicial Reform of 1864. It should be noted that the reform of the modern judicial system is associated with the Judicial Reform of Alexander II, as it had a great impact on the transformation process in the field of criminal and civil proceedings. The introduction of the institution of compulsory enforcement in the person of bailiffs led to the fact that the service contributed to the implementation of one of the main principles of justice – making the execution of court decisions mandatory.

Materials and Methods. Materials such as pre-revolutionary normative legal acts reflecting the principles of the organization and activity of the institute of bailiffs at the turn of the XIX-XX centuries were used in the study of the topic.

Analysis. With the reference to the establishment of judicial institutions, the article presents a detailed analysis of the results of the structure and work of bailiffs.

Results. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the creation of a postreform law enforcement structure in the second half of the XIX early XX centuries, both for Russia as a whole and for the region in particular, becomes the core of the executive mechanism of the judicial system.
