Second tout in court (6-2)
I believe the answer is:
runner-up
'second' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'tout in court' is the wordplay.
'tout' becomes 'runner' (both can mean someone soliciting business).
'in court' becomes 'up' (up before a judge).
'runner'+'up'='RUNNER-UP'
(Other definitions for runner-up that I've seen before include "Second-placed contestant" , "To come second" , "One nearly winning" , "One who is second in a race" , "Contestant in second place" .)
