Rainbow Quiz - The Long Arm Of The Law
31 Answers
After a bit of help and a lot of head scratching, unlike those clever people here who have finished, I am left with these:
67. Greek philosopher got the bird but had a scout around. 7,5
79. The club team used to solve cases. 8
0. He might do justice to an issuer of notes. 8
91. Sadly a bride's hands are tied. 7
96. Dull writing is abridged by ten - not specified. They are brought before a court. 12
97. Rarely granted a search. 7
98. Old prisoner serving his time in an educational establishment? 9
I would be most grateful for a hint or six so that I can submit a completed puzzle.
Thanks in advance.

I've been successfully completing cryptics for decades and have never had access to a Chambers dictionary.
If it's not in Chambers you often get people saying "I found this in Collins......etc. For me a cryptic should be solvable from fodder and wordplay. They are after all crosswords not archaic knowledge puzzles.
