Bring an accusation against (7)
I believe the answer is:
impeach
'bring an accusation against' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for impeach that I've seen before include "Accuse of serious crime against the state, say treason" , "Charge with major crime" , "Arraign, charge" , "Charge public official with misconduct - Clinton?" , "Charge with a crime (against the state)" .)
