Another thought, but not really a reply to anyone...

It does seem like we have evidence suggestion that there is *not* an 
obvious civil court system. I don't have GoF with me at the moment, but it 
seems like if there *were* an obvious civil court option, that Fred and 
George would have mentioned it re: the whole thing with Bagman.

We know that it's not because of minors gambling that they don't pursue it 
- because their father's reaction to the bet is "Erm, you know your mother 
wouldn't approve of you losing all your savings.", not something harsher. 
I think it's likely that if there *were* some option for legal recourse, 
it'd at least be mentioned in passing somewhere.
