Case Bar

Read each client's situation, then either pick the constitutional amendment that covers it or reject the case as bogus when no amendment applies. Correct rulings and fast decisions raise your score; three wrong rulings shut the firm down.

• Open the amendment picker and choose the protection that fits the client's complaint
• Throw out cases that no amendment covers
• Answer quickly, speed is part of the score
• Survive the whole docket without earning three strikes

• Desktop: click 'Match an Amendment' or 'Throw It Out', then click an amendment
• Phone & tablet: tap the same buttons and picker tiles

• Listen for the keyword in the complaint, speech, search, counsel, jury, it points to the right amendment
• Not every client has a valid claim; rejecting a bogus case is sometimes the correct ruling
• Daily gives everyone the same docket; practice reshuffles a fresh stack of clients

Case Bar teaches the Bill of Rights through quick courtroom judgments, applying constitutional rights to real situations.

• Skills: civics, the Bill of Rights, constitutional rights, reasoning
• Best for: roughly grades 6–12 (ages 11+)
• For parents & teachers: the Bill of Rights, applied to real cases.

Matching a client's situation to the constitutional amendment that covers it — or rejecting the case when none does — is applied constitutional literacy.

Including bogus cases is the original test.

The rejections are the harder half. A grievance can be real, serious and simply not constitutional, and the instinct to find an amendment for every wrong is the exact misunderstanding the bogus cases are there to catch.
