I've to return to court to get a tenant out (5)
I believe the answer is:
evict
'a tenant out' is the definition.
'evict' can be an answer for 'out' (thesaurus). I'm not certain of the 'a tenant' bit.
'i've to return to court' is the wordplay.
'to return' says the letters should be written backwards.
'to court' becomes 'ct' (abbreviation used in road names).
'ive' in reverse letter order is 'evi'.
'evi'+'ct'='EVICT'
'to get' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for evict that I've seen before include "Put out of house as for non-payment" , "Turf out" , "Expel (tenant)" , "Make homeless" , "Throw out of property" .)
