Restricted by court, easily clear (5,4)
I believe the answer is:
bound over
I believe this is a double definition.
'restricted by court' is the first definition.
(binding over is a type of court action)
'easily clear' is the second definition.
(eg bounding over a hurdle)
(Other definitions for bound over that I've seen before include "Legally under restraint - jump across" , "Placed under a (specified) legal obligation" , "subject to legal constraint" , "Clear" , "Put under a legal obligation" .)
