[Star Trek] In a post scarcity society with no such thing as "money", how are court cases decided that traditionally would have been resolved with monetary settlements?

I just got burnt by my Space coffee from Space McDonald's. The hospital and treatment were obviously free, so McDonald's doesn't have to pay that. Do they just get off free and clear?

Just because there's no money doesn't mean the Federation has no legal system. If space McDonalds is guilty of negligence, those responsible can be be given what we would call "community service", reassigned to a less prestigious job, or incarnated in extreme cases.
