Austrian law is a civil law system founded on the Federal Constitutional Law of 1920, divided broadly into public law and private law. Its judiciary is organized into 113 district courts, 20 provincial courts and four higher provincial courts, topped by three separate apex institutions, the Supreme Court of Justice for civil and criminal matters, the Constitutional Court, and the Supreme Administrative Court. The system operates at the federal level, and Austria makes its statutes and regulations available to the public through the Legal Information System of the Republic of Austria.

Family classification carried over from this entity's own recorded SubLabel (Civil Law Family), assigned under the section-legal-systems structure wave (ruling 761) using the CIA World Factbook / JuriGlobe comparative-law family classification (system.Atlas.DataBrief, law). This edge materializes that existing classification as a connective fact; it is not a new independent research finding.
