RE: Mandatory Legal Process (ACTION-57, ISSUE-28)

I believe attempts to "add on" to the party responsibilities within legal process "outside of the DNT standard" is outside of scope of the working group.  Instead I would suggest the preamble of each document simply state "this standard is not intended to override local, state, or country law."

I don't think we need anything apart from Jonathan's text. I'd argue that for process applied to data collected in a third party capacity, notification is a must; for first party data, a should; and for any breach where you must notify some users, you must notify all users.
