I've to return to court to get a tenant out (5)
I believe the answer is:
evict
'a tenant out' is the definition.
'evict' can be an answer for 'out' (thesaurus). I'm not certain of the 'a tenant' bit.
'i've to return to court' is the wordplay.
'to return' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'to court' becomes 'ct' (abbreviation used in road names).
'ive' back-to-front is 'evi'.
'evi'+'ct'='EVICT'
'to get' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for evict that I've seen before include "Put out of house as for non-payment" , "Turf out" , "Expel (tenant)" , "Make homeless" , "Throw out of property" .)
