Previous case (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

precedent

'previous case' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for precedent that I've seen before include "exemplary court case" , "Earlier parallel event" , "Relevant earlier case in law" , "Going before" , "case one may need to quote" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
