Court statement (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

plea

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">court statement</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for plea that I've seen before include "Excuse - pretext" , "Earnest request, prayer" , "Request for mercy?" , "Urgent entreaty" , "Statement in court" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
