In the New Testament book of Luke chapter 23 verse 2 the Jewish leaders took Jesus to Pilate and told Pilate, " We have found this man subverting our nation. He opposes payment of taxes to Caesar and claims to be Christ, a king."

They knew that they had to make Jesus sound like he was against the government in order for Pilate to do anything.

Who was first Jesus or the Romans?

It depends on what you mean by "come before". Timewise, the Romans were established many years before Jesus. However in the Bible the term "come before" means that Jesus had to stand before the Romans, that is, Pilate, for judgement as Pilate was the highest Roman official in the city and he was the only one who could pass a death sentence.

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.
