Williams (‘Essays and Reviews’) on 25 June 1862, while he formed one of the judicial committee of the privy council on the hearing of the appeals in Gorham v. Bishop of Exeter (doctrine of baptismal regeneration), Long v. Bishop of Capetown (church discipline in the colonies), and the case of Bishop Colenso (jurisdiction of colonial metropolitans). His judgments will be found in Haggard (‘Ecclesiastical Reports’), Carter's ‘Notes of Cases in the Ecclesiastical and Maritime Courts,’ Robertson, Spinks (ecclesiastical and admiralty), Deane, William Robinson, Spinks (prize cases), Swabey, Lushington, Browning and Lushington, ‘Law Reports, Admiralty and Ecclesiastical Cases,’ vol. i., the ‘Law Times Reports,’ and Moore's ‘Privy Council Cases.’ A few of his speeches and judgments have been published separately.
With Brougham he was one of the founders of the Society for Diffusion of Useful Knowledge in April 1825. He was elected a bencher of the Inner Temple in 1840, and acted as treasurer of his inn in 1851. He served on a great number of royal commissions, and was for many years chancellor of the diocese of Rochester, official to the archdeacon, and commissary of Westminster, Essex, and Hertfordshire, and of the deaneries of Essex and Barking.
Lushington married, on 8 Aug. 1821, Sarah Grace, daughter of Thomas William Carr of Frognal, Hampstead, Middlesex. Of five sons and five daughters, his fourth son, Vernon Lushington, Q.C., was (1877–1900) county court judge for Surrey and Berkshire, while a twin brother, Sir Godfrey Lushington (1832–1907), was permanent under-secretary for the home department. Lushington's wife died on 20 Sept. 1837, and was buried in Bushey Church, Hertfordshire. His portrait, painted by W. Holman Hunt in 1862, is in the possession of Judge Lushington. There are engravings of Lushington by Walker (1834) after Newton, and by Holl after Wivell.
Lushington's younger brother, Charles Lushington (1785–1866), entered the civil service of the East India Company in 1800, and served in Bengal till 1827. Returning to England, he was M.P. for Ashburton in the liberal interest from 1833 to 1841, and for Westminster from 1847 to 1852. He resided for many years at Edgware, but died at Brighton 23 Sept. 1866. He published a ‘History of Calcutta's Religious Institutions,’ Calcutta, 1824; ‘Remonstrance addressed to the Bishop of London in behalf of the Dissenters,’ 1838; and ‘Dilemmas of a Churchman,’ 1838. His first wife Sarah, daughter of Colonel Joseph Gascoyne, whom he married in 1805, was author of ‘A Journey from Calcutta to Europe in 1827–8,’ London, 8vo, and died in 1839; his second wife Julia Jane, widow of Thomas Teed of Stanmore, died in February 1866.
