Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856):

CONDEMNATION, mar. law. The sentence or judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction that a ship or vessel taken as a prize on the high seas, was
liable to capture, and was properly and legally captured.
     2. By the general practice of the law of nations, a sentence of
condemnation is, at present, generally deemed necessary in order to divest
the title of a vessel taken as a prize. Until this has been done the
original owner may regain his property, although the ship may have been in
possession of the enemy twenty-four hours, or carried infra praesidia. 1

Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856):

CONDEMNATION, civil law. A sentence of judgment which condemns some one to
do, to give, or to pay something; or which declares that his claim or
pretensions are unfounded. This word is also used by common lawyers, though
it is more usual to say conviction, both in civil and criminal cases. It is
a maxim that no man ought to be condemned unheard, and without the
opportunity of being heard.
