Spanish term or phrase: Judiciary Power o Judicial Branch?
Buenas noches. Tengo que traducir un certificado de adopción y en la copia aparece el emblema del poder judicial. Mi pregunta es, ¿se traduce como "judiciary power" o "judicial branch"? Es para Estados Unidos la traducción. ¡Muchas gracias!

Courts Authority
