Of course, if I'm not mistaken, we only have knowledge of "wizard 
world justice" during a period of extreme crisis in the land due to 
Voldemort. Things could be completely different during more normal 
times.

In some ways, the "judicial" activities that took place during that 
time remind of America's stand on military tribunals post-Sept 11, in 
that due to the fact of a major crisis, full-blown trials, with lots 
of lawyers and appeals and so forth are felt to be much less 
important that taking care of the crisis at hand.
