Ross

I believe the answer is:

writ

(Other definitions for writ that I've seen before include "Legal order in writing" , "Legal injunction" , "Legal summons" , "It may be served" , "Formal command of law court requiring certain action" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times, The Times and the Universal.
