Good point. I'm not sure. I know in the US they have had some cases here where the local jurisdiction took control

I've heard of some cases in the Spanish board regarding lawsuits and bitcoin, but, digging for some information, the most famous cases are the ones the press has shared. For instance:
https://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-in-the-docks-7-crypto-court-cases/
Anyway, with time, more legal precedents will be settled to lawyers to know what to do (this is quite outdated): https://news.bitcoin.com/get-ready-for-2017-these-legal-precedents-on-bitcoin-were-set-in-2016/

Regarding "small cases" I'm afraid there is not much information yet.
In the forum there are some cases, maybe you find this interesting to read: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=82969.0

That would be a nice thing if there is such available especially reports like campaign bounty didn't pay after the whole labor or airdrop program didn't send you the airdrop after collecting your data and using it for themselves

That is different from one country to another and the extent to which Bitcoin legally accepted in your state.
Hacking depends on how well you can prove the ownership of your account and prove who has hacked, but it is generally difficult to take legal status.
About bounties campaign, It depends on the trust so do not participate in campaigns without having to prove to the dealership or deal with the escrow.

Remember that Bitcoin is universal, so there should be a unified law that brings together all the countries of the world."So that the legal situation is effective"
