1530 J. Rastell New Bk. Purgatory iii. xi. sig. g4 Therfore purgatory can be no place contynentyue but purgatory maye be a place lymytatyue, and also a place operatyue. For where so euer that god doth lymyt the soule of man after it is separate from the body to be purged, there is y^e place lymytatyue of the soule.

limitative judgement n. [after German beschränkendes Urtheil (1781 in Kant, in the passage translated in quot. 1838; now beschränkendes Urteil)] Logic a third quality of judgement besides affirmative and negative, used by Kant to denote judgements of the type ‘Every A is a not-B’; (also) a judgement serving to limit or modify another.

1902 Philos. Rev. 11 488 He attacked the limitative judgment, which as we shall see, is the proper place for seeking the implications that lie in the negative.

2009 G. B. Moynahan in W. Breckman & M. Jay Modernist Imagination 67 The form of logic and concept are not based on the Aristotelian notion of ‘abstraction’, but on a complex form of ‘limitative judgement’ in which each statement is based on a certain horizon of assumptions.
