Maybe I've just found the answer to my own question - is it something like this:
public Representation getRepresentation(Variant variant) {
....snip...
} catch (JSONException e) {
log.error("Error constructing JSON response while returning a user", e);
this.getResponse().setStatus(
Status.CLIENT_ERROR_BAD_REQUEST, e.getMessage());
}
return null;
}
