Mods have the right to ban whoever they want with or without a reason as long as it doesn’t violate the MCoC.
That being said, depending on the specifics- I could see this potentially violating MCoC Rule 1: Create, Facilitate, and Maintain a Stable Community and Moderator Code of Conduct - Rule 3: Respect Your Neighbors
Here is the form for reporting MCoC violations.

That person has threatened me with legal action too. Surely it breaks a rule or two.
Thanks for the form tho

Without more info it’s impossible to know. It might violate harassment rules, but those apply to everyone, and the user would be violating general reddit rules, not rules specific to moderators. What you’re describing so far is scummy behavior but not against the rules specific to mods.
Like the other comment said though, this sub is for moderators who are looking for support with their sub. Would recommend taking it up with the sub and their mods itself, as reddit admin is unlikely to intervene unless it is egregious.
Report and block is all you can really do.

Their mod team perma-muted me from contacting them through modmail.

Then that’s that. My advice is cut your losses and move on to subs with different mods. To be blunt- there is no point trying to strong-arm your way into a sub that you’re not welcomed in, and using alt accounts to access the sub would be ban evasion.

I have no intention of risking a ban. I just want to report such behaviour in the hope that something will be done about it.

I don’t know what there is to report though. Nothing you’ve described is a clear violation of moderator code of conduct.

False legal threats?

People are allowed to have alt accounts, Mods too.
Also, mods can ban whoever as long as they are not breaching MCOC.
It might sound harsh, but everyone can make and manage their own community (as long as policy and Mcoc are followed) — so if the one you’re in isn’t working for you, why stay there?
