Day in court? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

date

This clue is a double definition.

'day' is the first definition.
(date is a kind of day)

'court?' is the second definition.
(romantically pursue)

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for date that I've seen before include "one's arranged to meet" , "Romantic assignation" , "Day, month and year" , "Sticky fruit" , "6 [TREE]" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
