+
+**Incorrect**
+```sqf
+switch (_value) do {
+    case 1: { "one" };
+    case 2: { "two" };
+    case 1: { "one again" };
+};
+```
+
+**Correct**
+```sqf
+switch (_value) do {
+    case 1: { "one" };
+    case 2: { "two" };
+    case 3: { "three" };
+};
+```
+
+### Explanation
+
+Having duplicate case labels in a switch statement is likely a mistake. Only the first case will be executed, and the duplicate case will never be reached.
