Did you go to court for any offence? If yes and you pleaded guilty for the offence or judgement is made against you, you will get punishment (fine, community services etc) by court. This is what is called civil judgement.

I don't think that is right. Civil Judgments means things like CCJs .... County Court Judgments ..... in respect of things like unpaid debts.

They are nothing to do with criminal convictions.

Yes, i had to pay some money to a solicitor. Anyway, the judge reduced the money owed so i won, sort off. There was no pleading guilty and 'spent' time...
So just wanted to know, if i need to put it down on my application form for naturalisation. It was over 9 years ago.
Thank you for your answers.

OK, did you then go on to pay the amount ordered by the Judge? If so, and especially because of the length of time that has passed, I don't think that there is any need to mention that on the form AN.
