"Not guilty,” for one (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

plea

'not guilty for one' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for plea that I've seen before include "suit" , "Urgent request" , "Leap (anag.)" , "(and 14) Enjoyment - gratification" , "Defence - excuse - appeal" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, the King Feature Syndicate and The Wall Street Journal.
