Guilty – or not? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

plea

(Other definitions for plea that I've seen before include "Negotiation between prosecutor and defendant" , "Formal statement of guilty or not guilty" , "Statement in court" , "response to criminal charges" , "(and 14) Enjoyment - gratification" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
