Crossword Genius

Such cases will be arranged later, sir (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

retrials

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'such cases' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'arranged later sir' is the wordplay.
'arranged' indicates an anagram.
'later'+'sir'='latersir'
'latersir' is an anagram of 'RETRIALS'.

'will be' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for retrials that I've seen is " further tests".)
