直訴
  Comments:
Saw translated this way.  "appeal" is more common, but this also fits, and disambiguates a bit(not an "appeal" in the u.s. legal system sense).  reverso provides some support, though "appeal" is more common there as well.

"plea" could also be squeezed in here potentially.

nuance is something like:
direct appeal (to a sovereign/ to the head of an organization).  Not sure if that's apparent here or not.
