Attend case of indictment and get out (4,2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beat it

'get out' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'attend case of indictment' is the wordplay.
'attend' becomes 'beat' (I've seen this in other clues**).
'case of' means to remove the middle letters (outsides of).
'indictment' with its centre removed is 'it'.
'beat'+'it'='BEAT IT'

'and' is the link.

(Other definitions for beat it that I've seen before include "Scram, take a powder" , "fly away" , "Make off hastily" , "Clear off!" , "leave" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
