The judicial authority was created on January 1, 1967 from the merger of the former “prison authority” with the previously independent “state justice administration”, which oversaw the courts, public prosecutors and other institutions.

With the start of the red-green coalition in Senate Scholz II , the area of ​​equality was transferred from the judicial authority to the authority for science, research and equality (formerly only authority for science and research).

In the course of the continuation of the red-green coalition after the 2020 general election , in 2020 in the Tschentscher II Senate responsibility for consumer protection was transferred from the now dissolved health and consumer protection authority to the judicial authority.
