Apparently not much of a relationship.

Pilate was Governor of Judea. Herod Antipas was district ruler of neighboring Galilee. (There were many other in the line of Herod's."

Actually Pilate and Herod had been enemies, possibly because of certain accusations that Herod had leveled against Pilate.

But on the last day of Jesus' earthly life, when Jesus was brought before Pilate; Pilate had heard that Jesus was a Galilean. Herod was visiting in Jerusalem at the time; so Pilate sent Jesus to Herod Antipas, for Pilate had experienced trouble with the Galileans.

This move on Pilate's part pleased Herod and they became friends. Acts 4:27 connects the two rulers as colluding against Jesus.

Pilate and Herod were both Roman-appointed rulers in ancient Judea. They were known to have had a strained relationship, as Herod held authority over Galilee while Pilate was the prefect of Judea. Despite their differences, they came together during the trial of Jesus, as described in the New Testament.

Who was the judge that the Romans brought Jesus to?

Jesus was brought from Caiaphas' house to appear before Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor of Judea. The Jewish leaders charged Jesus with subversion of both Israel and Rome. Two of their charges were designed especially to get Pilate's attention. The first was that Jesus opposed paying taxes to Caesar and that Jesus claimed to be king. Finding no fault in Him, Pilate summoned Jesus into Herod's palace and questioned Him further. In the course of the conversation, Pilate learned Jesus was a Galilean and was under Herod's jurisdiction. So Pilate sent Jesus to Herod, who had heard about Jesus and wanted to see Him. Herod had Jesus dressed in a robe and sent back to Pilate. When Jesus came back, Pilate told the Jewish leaders that neither he nor Herod could find Jesus guilty of a crime that brought with it the death penalty.
