Court disputed jury's conclusion, causing hoo-ha (6)
I believe the answer is:
outcry
'hoo-ha' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'court disputed jury's conclusion' is the wordplay.
'disputed' indicates an anagram.
'conclusion' says to take the final letters.
The last letter of 'jury' is 'y'.
'court' with letters rearranged gives 'outcr'.
'outcr'+'y'='OUTCRY'
'causing' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for outcry that I've seen before include "Public clamour" , "Widespread protest - clamour" , "Hullabaloo" , "Strong expression of public disapproval or anger" , "A strong public protest - sounds loud" .)
