This is when a court amends (or makes clearer by some change in wording) a judgment when the original judgment has ambiguities or other confusing wording that may cause the actual intent of the judgment to be seen in a different way. It is basically to clear up any confusion or make clear the intent of the original judgment.

Within criminal law, a judgment of conviction implies the final passing of a guilty sentence in a criminal case in which punishment is imposed. An amended judgment of conviction therefore implies the adding upon of or the reduction of the guilty sentence passed in a criminal case.

"Amend" when used in this fashion means to "change" - something about the judgment is being modified or changed from the original finding.
