Probably the equivalent of a coroner's inquest on the Potters. The inquest 
would have found the cause of death as being foul play with implications of 
responsibility on Black's part, although no one seems to have assumed that he was 
the one who killed them. 

Sirius never was brought to trial for killing Pettigrew and 12 Muggles.
