Just in Case

Hi all,

A case question.

What would you call the case that means 'in regards to', 'pursuant to',
etc.? The case would be used to express things like,

    "_If you're hungry_, there's food on the table." (pretend 'if' is a
preposition.)

    "_Regarding the proposed legislation_, I hope you realize that a
majority of the population are minorities."
