Hey Abhishek,

You cannot put the contact filter on Case like this in SOQL. 

So kindly refer thie example :- 

Assuming you have Checkbox field in Account as IsChecked__c and Picklist field on Contact as Status__c.
An example query to fetch cases where Account's IsChecked field is check and Contact's Status field is Started
SELECT Id, CaseNumber, Contact.Name FROM Case WHERE
    Account.IsChecked__c = true AND
    Contact.Status__c = 'Started'

For more detail refer this:-

Kindly mark it as the best answer if it works for you.

 

Thanks & Regards,

HI Abhishek Sharma 527,
you just need to copy & paste below query in your query Editor and you will find data.
Select id, Status,contact.Name, Account.Name from Case where Contact.Name IN ('Forbes, Sean', 'Pavlova, Stella')

('Forbes, Sean', 'Pavlova, Stella') => this all are contact Name. you can paste here your contact name and try it. It will work.

Thanks ravi, I know your DML query would work, I want to know about isChecked field in account and it's relevance in contact object if you can help with that.
