No, you have to contact the registrant which is why lawyers go to the registrant and demand the registrant transfer the domain. The registrar has no obligation to respond to you or to cooperate with you just because you are making demands. The registrar has no legal liability for domains registered through them and how they are used. Registrars get assloads of threats daily by people making all kinds of moronic threats and claims - if they respond at all, its out of courtesy, not necessity.
