Supreme Court of Judicature Act explained

Supreme Court of Judicature Act (with its variations) is a stock short title which was formerly used for legislation in the United Kingdom relating to the Supreme Court of Judicature for England and Wales and the court of the same name for Ireland.

The Bill for an Act with this short title may have been known as a Supreme Court of Judicature Bill, or as a Judicature Bill during its passage through Parliament.

These Acts have since been superseded for Northern Ireland by the Judicature (Northern Ireland) Act 1978 (c. 23) and for England and Wales by the Supreme Court Act 1981 (c. 54) (now renamed as the Senior Courts Act 1981).
