Hauls into court (4)

I believe the answer is:

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

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for sues that I've seen before include "Institutes legal proceedings against" , "Takes a case against" , "Takes to court" , "Proceeds legally against" , "Takes legal action against" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, the L.A. Times Sunday, The Mirror, the Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post and The New York Times.
