In my campaign, the Queen has a judge system (similar to the Mega City One lot, but obviously with fantasy equipment. Lawgives are Repeating Lt Crossbow, Daysticks are warhammers, etc...)
One of the characters is a mage - the Queen's son (Ronan the Accuser lol!) who has recently passed his evaluation and gained the Full Eagle. So I thought it worthwhile creating the prestige class for the caster branch of the judges. Btw, despite the name, the "Arcane" judge prestige is for both arcane spellcasters and manifesters
Arcane Judge Prestige Class

Alignment: Any Lawful
Ability to cast arcane spells or manifester abilities
Skills: Knowledge (law) 8, Psicraft or Spellcraft 8
Level To Hit F R W Abilities

3 +1 +1 +1 +3 Defender of the Law
4 +2 +1 +1 +4 Stop in the name of the law 2/day

10 +5 +3 +3 +7 Stop in the name of the law 4/day, Cage the Criminal

Class skills (6 pts per lvl): Concentration, Decipher Script, Gather Information, Intimidate, Knowledge (any), Psicraft/Spellcraft, Sense Motive
Note: every level adds to Spellcaster or manifester level
Stop in the name of the law: Hold Person. Becomes Hold Monster at lvl 7
I am the Law: as Iron Will feat
The Judge always gets his man: The judge can focus on one target, whether a known criminal, or the unknown perpetrator of a known crime – takes 1 hour of examining the evidence. Adds class level to Gather Information, Intimidate, Listen, Sense Motive and Spot checks when hunting the criminal
Defender of the Law: Judge has a continuous Protection from Chaos aura similar to a Paladin’s Pro vs Evil aura
My word is law: Order’s Wrath 2/day
No Escape: Dimensional Anchor 1/day
THE LAW!: Dictum 1/day
Cage the Criminal: As Imprisonment 1/day but to a specific pocket dimension that can hold one being. The judge can release the prisoner later in their presence but cannot imprison another in the same space with it
