Summary/Abstract: This paper is concerned with historical and possible future evolution of administration of courts in the Czech republic. In the first part, it describes the term of Courts’ administration law and its position in our system of law. Analysis of historical development of courts’ administration in both Europe and the Czech republic follows in the next part. Subsequent chapter analyzes all possible models of courts’ administration in our country and furthermore, author’s opinion on the most appropriate form of it is presented. The very last part of this paper stresses the importance of ethical aspects of the judicial profession which must be founded on values corresponding with the values of a society as a whole including current approach to the idea of law and not the obsolete normativism of the former communist regime.
