Not forbidden (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

licit

'not forbidden' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for licit that I've seen before include "Honest" , "Allowable" , "Allowed as by law, not forbidden" , "Lawful, permitted" , "Permitted by law" .)

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