Implead

To bring an accusation against.

For ye have brought hither these men, which are neither robbers of churches, nor yet blasphemers of your goddess. Wherefore if Demetrius, and the craftsmen which are with him, have a matter against any man, the law is open, and there are deputies: let them IMPLEAD one another. ( Acts 19:37-38 )
