Summons, e.g (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

writ

(Other definitions for writ that I've seen before include "Legal order in writing" , "court paper" , "Legal document issued by an officer of the court" , "Legal document issued by judicial officer" , "Legal or formal document" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.com and The New York Times.
