Rule imposed by authority (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

law

'rule imposed by authority' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for law that I've seen before include "Collection of rules imposed by authority" , "Official rule" , "at 16 down [MAN UNITED]" , "Act" , "Rule of conduct" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
