Italian term or phrase: "giudicante"
in the paragraph below the solicitor is accusing the other party of taking judgement into their own hands...the term is in inverted commas in the source text.

Si tratta di una sorta di indagine autoreferenziale, oltrepassando i confini dell'indagine peritale e del suo ruolo assumendo il ruolo di “giudicante” perseguendo il desiderio di fare giustizia. Appare svolgere il proprio incarico in funzione di vittoria o sconfitta.

could I translate the term as "pseudo-judge"?

Thanks for your help
