Their is no recognised Sanhedrin today. The Sanhedrin was essentially a super court that could rule in matters for the entire Jewish world. today, many communities have a rabbi that serves in this role, and most countries, and sometime communities within countries, have a Beis Din (Rabbinical court) which overseas conversions, weddings, divorces, internal disputes etc. but there is no single rabbinical court which has binding power over any other and no court is recognised as a Sanhedrin (the intiative linked to in the other answer is a new one and has no power over any but those rabbis participating in it. it would be nice if it does gain acceptance but at the moment it is still unrecognised and powerless.)

No. They are gone as well as there is no longer any temple worship or animal sacrifice. As much as Judaism likes to claim it holds to all the old practices, it also has changed dramatically from the OT days.
