Relinquish legally (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cede

'relinquish legally' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for cede that I've seen before include "Surrender or yield" , "Allow" , "Surrender or grant" , "Give up one's rights" , "Give up (power to another)" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today and the Newsday.
