I believe the answer is:

plea

(Other definitions for plea that I've seen before include "response to criminal charges" , "Defendant's answer to a charge or claim" , "Request - appeal" , "Formal statement of guilty or not guilty" , "Earnest request, prayer" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
