Judicial, 'judicial' extends 'to the acts and orders of a competent authority which has power to impose a liability or to give a decision which determines the rights or property of the affected parties'. 'Judicial' embraces even the acts of special tribunals which though administrative in character perform func-tions resembling those of Courts, Bhailal Jagadish v. Additional Deputy Commissioner, AIR 1953 Nag 89.
Judicial, does not necessarily mean acts of a Judge or Legal Tribunal sitting for the determination of matters of law, but for the purpose of this question a judicial act seems to be an act done by a competent authority, upon consideration of facts and circumstances and imposing liability or affecting the rights of others, Regina John M'Evoy v. Dublin Corpn., (1878) 2 LR Ir 371.
Has two meanings. It may refer to the discharge of duties exercisable by a Judge or by Justices in court or to administrative duties which need not be performed in court, but in respect of which it is necessary to bring to bear a judicial mind, that is, a mind to determine what is fair and just in respect of the matters under consideration, Royal Aquarium and Summer and Winter Garden Society Ltd. v. Parkinson, (1892) 1 QB 431: (1891-94) All ER Rep 429 (CA)
