No, that's not what happened. The government initially asked LavaBit to intercept and provide data for one user only. LavaBit had done this in the past for FBI on other cases. However, the owner dragged his feet for no legally defensible reason responding to this particular request, and asked for compensation et cetera, and so the government demanded the SSL keys to do it themselves.
