Abstract
The features of regulatory and documentary support for the activities of bailiff administrations, border and clan courts, and clan administrations in the North Caucasus in the late 18th — early 19th centuries are considered. General information is provided about the development of the system of institutions of local judicial-administrative control in the region. The normative acts of the emperor and higher authorities defining the scope of authority of these institutions, documenting their transformations in the context of administrativeterritorial changes, containing information on personnel composition, appointment of new leaders, and other related matters are characterized. The forms of documentary support for communication between bailiff administrations and border courts with other government institutions and officials are studied, and the features of such interaction are identified depending on the place of these institutions in the administrative hierarchy.
