throw-out
Toss it away
A throw-out is something discarded or rejected—an item deemed unfit to keep.
In baseball, a throw-out is when a fielder throws the ball to retire a baserunner: The catcher made a perfect throw-out at second base.
In legal contexts, a throw-out is a case dismissed by the court.
The hyphenated form typically functions as a noun; the verb phrase is two words: throw out.
