Completely stumped by this one (my last).

3D Fictional lawyer is held up - and down perhaps (9,6)

P _ D _ N _ E _ D _ I _ L _ N

Could it be a fictional lawyer that's an anagram of 'is held up - and down'?

The first word is so odd that I'm wondering whether I'm got one of the cross clues wrong ... but I don't know which.

Any help appreciated!

Can’t believe you’ve never heard of Puddnhead Wilson ;)

Thank you Candledave, you've made me realise how lacking in Mark Twain I am!
