If your situation has anything to do with the administration of justice or involves a judge, then it's officially judicial. And you should probably get a lawyer.
Judicial comes to us all the way from the Latin word judex, which means — you guessed it — "judge." But while judicial is most often used when describing legal proceedings, it can also be used to describe anyone who has to judge something in a fair way. Film critics are expected to give judicial reviews, just as the Miss America pageant judges must be judicial when assessing the swimsuit competition.
