As a public service, here are a few tips on English usage that would benefit the site:
1. It's 'hear, hear' not 'here, here'.
2. It's 'judgment' not 'judgement'.
3. 'Lose' and 'loose' are not interchangeable.
4. 'There', 'their' and 'they're' really do mean different things.
5. 'Its' is the possessive; 'it's' is a contraction of 'it is'.
6. 'None' takes the singular, and in most cases can be thought of as a contraction of 'not one'. Thus one says 'none of them was guilty', not 'none of them were guilty'.
7. It's 'could have', not 'could of'.
8. Plurals do not require apostrophes (as opposed to 'plural's do not require apostrophe's'😉.
Believe me, I could go on...

Originally posted by ivangriceHere, here! Another judgement made in a loose fashion. There no exceptions, it seems, not even for the non-native English writers. Its a shame! As of the native ones, none of them were ever caught of making a mistake (or what?).

Would your URL come from the same site as this:
http://dictionary.reference.com/help/faq/language/j/judgment.html
Just curious.
:-)
Edit - to answer your question, comparing the URLs suggests the site is the same.
