The article considers the value component of the concept "court" in the Russian everyday linguistic consciousness based on the corpus of proverbs of judicial subjects. The ambiguity of the perception of the concept of "court" by ordinary legal consciousness is revealed. The linguistic means of positive and negative evaluation of the court are recorded. Evaluative language means express oppositions of ethno-cultural moral and ethical concepts: "(not)truth" / "lie", "(not)justice", "offense", "(not) righteousness", "good" / "evil". In everyday linguistic consciousness, the standard of justice is represented as a right, direct (objective, fair, lawful) court, carried out by a kind, righteous (honest, fair, conscientious, decent, law-abiding) judge, subject to the operation of the law (saint, peacemaker). The provision on the unconditional opposition of the ethical and legal aspects of the Russian linguistic consciousness is corrected: the conceptual syncretism "truth – justice – legality" is revealed.
