Cases

For the purposes of this category, a case is an incident that is investigated by the player during the course of an Ace Attorney game, through one or more investigation and/or trial chapters. When a case involves only one investigation day, information on that investigation is bundled up with the information about the case itself. Similarly, a case involving only one trial day will have information on that trial bundled up with the case information. This category is technically out-of-universe in nature (i.e. about a subject outside the experiences of the fictional characters within the story); however, it is also a subcategory of Category:Incidents, an in-universe category. Incidents that are cases should be placed in this subcategory rather than Category:Incidents.

Typically, cases and game episodes / anime arcs line up one-to-one, in which case there will be one article for both out-of-universe episode content and in-universe incident content. However, in many cases, an episode involves multiple cases, in which case there are separate articles for each case. There is even an instance of two cases being covered over two episodes, with each case and episode in question having its own article.
