legally liable
Explanation:
Since the opposite of "papërjashtuar" can easily be "përjashtuar", then "legally exempt" stands against "legally liable". It's hard to gauge the exact purpose of this choice of word in the context since it's not common (probably even this is an overstatement). Other possibilities could be: legally accountable or responsible.
