My suggestion would be to replace "legal demand" with "demand based on a claim of legal violation" in the abstract, section 1, and the first paragraph of section 3, and replace all other instances of "legal demand" with "demand." This is a little clunky but it's the best idea I could come up with. I would be very hesitant to use "claim of legal violation", because it might be read as agreeing that a violation had occurred. You could alter this further to clarify that this status code is used when returning the relevant resource might result in a violation of laws, but I think that's simply going to make matters worse. I think the current language will be understood in context, and it is better to keep than re-wordsmith now.. So, if Winston Churchill was still living, he might be saying "this status code is the worst possible, except for all the others"? [1] I may use that myself, one of these days.
