deemed

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'judged' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'me in what was done' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'me' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'deed' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for deemed that I've seen before include "'Judged, considered (6)'" , "Considered, reckoned" , "Judged, thought, considered" , "Considered, opined" , "Viewed as, reckoned" .)
