Morphology
adjudicatory = adjudicate (transparent) = ad + judic + atory
The adjective is a regular formation from the verb 'adjudicate' with the productive suffix '-atory' meaning 'relating to' or 'serving for'.
Etymology
Adjudicatory comes from the Latin parts ad- 'to' and judicare 'to judge', and it shares the same root as the common words judge and judicial. So an adjudicatory process is one that makes a formal decision or judgment, often in a legal setting.
