}

// Resource Types
enum ResourceType {
  CASE = 'case',
  DOCUMENT = 'document',
  UPDATE = 'update',
  ASSIGNMENT = 'assignment',

  canDelete(user: User, resource: ResourceType, resourceId: string): boolean;
  canAssign(user: User, resource: ResourceType, resourceId: string): boolean;
}
```

#### **Case-Specific Permissions**
```typescript
