server side processing and manipulating data returned

I am using datatables version 1.10.0 for search capability.
I want to know for server side processing how do i manipulate the response. For example I have a json response that returns with the records to display and also a status.
My requirement is, if there is validation failure on the server side, I do not want to draw the table and instead, render error messages on screen. Otherwise if success draw the table.
Simple Example below:
$('#result').dataTable( {
"processing": true,
"serverSide": true,
"ajax": {
"url": "search",
"type": "POST",
//"dataSrc": "resultList",
"dataSrc": function ( json ) {
if (json.responseStatus.value == 'Validation Failure') {
//show error messages on screen
//prevent redraw
} else {
//draw the table with the resultList
}
}
"columns": [
{ "data": "referenceNumber"},
{ "data": "fileName" },
{ "data": "documentType" },
{ "data": "uploadType" },
{ "data": "createdBy" },
{ "data": "memberName" },
{ "data": "dateOfBirthStr"},
{ "data": "createdDateStr" },
{ "data": "comment" },
{ "data": "status" }
]
} );
Is this possible?
Thanks.

UPDATE:
On the server side I return 403:
return new ResponseEntity<SearchUploadResponse>(searchUploadResponse, HttpStatus.FORBIDDEN);
On the client side:
The result is i can show my error messages.
datatables blocks access to the table with the "processing" div.
Is this the correct approach?
