Note
A regular past form, built by adding only -d because judge already ends in a silent e. The same spelling stands alone as a simple past (the panel judged) and follows have or be as a participle (has judged, was judged). It carries every meaning of the verb, from passing sentence in court to simply forming an opinion. Older texts may also use it for condemning or awarding by judicial decision, uses now obsolete.
