Send back to a lower court (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

remit

(Other definitions for remit that I've seen before include "Send (money) in payment; pardon" , "Send < authorisation" , "Area(s) of responsibility or to be dealt with" , "Orders" , "Maybe suspend" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
