Dans le cas où

The Subjunctivisor!

Does dans le cas où require the subjunctive?

No, dans le cas où does not take the subjunctive:

Par exemple…

Dans le cas où tu viendrais avec nous, je te ferai un sandwich.
In case you come with us, I’ll make you a sandwich.

Comparison Note that the conjunctive phrase dans le cas où is always followed by the conditional (as is au cas où).
