:: Have any justice systems in stories you've read been David Friedman's
:: dream, completely privatized?[1]

: For some reason, The Moon is a Harsh Mistress comes to mind...

Hm.  How about "And Then There Were None"?
Or, perhaps "The Ungoverned".

:: Any particular good stories involving how well or badly justice is
:: handed out in a SF or Fantasy milieu?

Maybe "The Disposessed".  Maybe "Coventry".  Or that sequel to Coventry,
"Methuselah's Children".  Which then reminds me of the "Methuselas"
in "Altered Carbon", which has something to do with how well or badly
justice is dispensed therein.  Or, say, "Oath of Fealty".  And...
well, free association goes on and on from there.
