Green lit

Prison lingo: When a dirty cop wants a prisoner dead he will have him green lit which means he gives the okay for another prisoner that owes him a favor to shank this guy to death in the showers

It means "ok'd" or "let through".

Like "They green-lit the plans for that new house" or "I hope my idea gets the green light."

It's when you hold a green light on something. It's "green-lit"...
