Strictly accurate cutback by court (5)
I believe the answer is:
exact
'strictly accurate' is the definition.
'exact' can be an answer for 'accurate' (synonyms). I am unsure of the 'strictly' bit.
'cutback by court' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'by' could be 'x' (multiplication sign) and 'x' is found within the answer.
'court' could be 'ct' (abbreviation used in road names) and 'ct' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'ea' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for exact that I've seen before include "Particular" , "19 [WREST]" , "Explicit" , "Precise and strictly correct" , "Precisely accurate" .)
