Mulcted (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fined

'mulcted' is the definition.
('fine' can be a synonym of 'mulct')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for fined that I've seen before include "Imposed financial penalty on" , "Fed in (anag.)" , "Mulcted" , "Ordered to pay penalty" .)

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