Edit: see PandaDirector's post below for the correct ruling.
@Doctor Lucky: unless I missed something about the situation or the rules, I don't think there was anything wrong with what the judge did. The book states you get 2 Moves, 1 Action, and as many different Free Actions as you want per activation, and that they can be done in any order (move-attack-move, atack-move-move, etc). So I think it is okay for Judge to Move once, Action Attack once, Move once, then Free Action Mine the workbench.
Is it possible that you are confusing Malifaux rules with Puppet Wars rules? My girlfriend actually called me on that because I was counting Moves as Actions due to my recent malifaux games. I dont have the book with me, but I'm almost positive a Move is separate from an Action, and you always get 2 Moves and 1 Action, and a Multitasker would get 2 Moves and 2 Actions (so seamus could move twice, cast one spell, then make a Strike/Attack action once)
hope this helps
