Her Majesty's Most Noble High Court (Audonian: Haut Cour; Sydalene: Qorti Għolja), usually referred to as the Haut Cour, is a formal body of advisers to the Monarch of Sydalon. the Haut Cour is composed of the Monarch, his or her consort, Great Officers of State, and government ministers. The Monarch chairs the council, though the First Secretary serves as the de facto major personality of the High Court.

High Court members mostly are selected due to their status as members of the royal family and Crown-appointed members that generally possess political, commercial, diplomatic or military experience. The Monarch is responsible for all appointments to the High Court, and all members serve at the Monarch's pleasure. The High Court's chief function is to advise the Monarch on any political, foreign, domestic matter, or any issue for which the Monarch request advice. The Monarch, through the High Court, may directly submit legislation to either chamber of the Senate. Due to its Audonic roots, the Haut Cour is the only Sydalene institution that does not use Sydalene as its working language, instead utilizing Audonian.
