Case有时还表示诉讼当事人向法庭提出的证据和辩论。法律中的案例教学法(the case method)又称为“苏格拉底式教学法”(the Socratic method),它不同于传统的以教师为核心的讲授式教学法(lecture method),是以“问答式”(a catechetical system)或“对话式”方法进行教学,通过问答方式启发受教育者发展自己的思维。
close a case;settle a case结案
英译汉:
If closure of the case is initiated by our office,we will notify the custodial party in writing before we actually close the case.
