__ Ellen, J.R.'s wife on "Dallas" (3)

I believe the answer is:

sue

(Other definitions for sue that I've seen before include "take to 10 [COURT] !" , "Begin legal proceedings against" , "Apply" , "Start proceedings against (someone)" , "Seek legal redress" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
