Court officer (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bailiff

'court officer' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for bailiff that I've seen before include "Officer of court" , "Possibly menacing landlord's agent" , "Sheriff's officer - landlord's agent" , "Landowner's agent" , "Landlord's agent or steward" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday and the Evening Standard.
