Jury may have such trouble based on a misrepresentation (10,5)
I believe the answer is:
reasonable doubt
'jury may have such trouble based on a misrepresentation' is the definition.
'trouble based on a misrepresentation' is the wordplay.
'misrepresentation' indicates an anagram.
'trouble'+'based'+'on'+'a'='troublebasedona'
'troublebasedona' with letters rearranged gives 'REASONABLE DOUBT'.
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
