I think depends on context and what you’re trying to use the term for. In the original sentence that was quoted, I think “the justice system” or “law enforcement” would have worked though colloquially, some people would have misunderstood both as just implying the criminal side.
I think “the legal system,” “legal conflict,” or just “the law” also would’ve basically worked though each might have a slightly different connotation.
