'''Settle It in Court''' is a Duel [[minigame]] in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', as well as a single-player minigame in [[Test for the Best]]. Its name is a pun on the phrase "Let's settle it in court," which traditionally refers to a judicial court rather than a basketball one. This minigame is similar in concept to [[Three Throw]] from ''[[Mario Party 4]]''.

==Introduction==
The player is on a basketball court, among a [[Shy Guy]] and many [[Goomba]]s. The Shy Guy throws the player a basketball, and they shoot it. The game begins after that.

==Gameplay==
The Shy Guy throws basketballs from the side, and there is a meter at the top of the screen, with a basketball going from right to left across it, one at a time. When the ball icon reaches the yellow marker at the center, the player must swing {{button|wii|Wiimote}} forward to make the shot. Occasionally, a Goomba icon slides across. When it reaches the marker, the player must press the {{button|wii|A}} or {{button|wii|B}} button, and the Goomba gives the player an assist. The speed the icon goes across varies. Whoever has more baskets after 30 seconds is declared the winner. If both players' scores are the same, the minigame ends in a tie.

==Ending==
The winning player does their victory animation, as well as the Shy Guy and the Goombas, which are jumping (cheering). If a tie occurs, both players do their losing animations.

==Test for the Best==
In Test for the Best, the player plays alone in this minigame and must sink as many baskets as possible within 30 seconds. The scores required to earn a certain point total are as follows:
