+#' Case Counts Validation
+#'
+#' This is an internal function called by the estimators. It validates the
+#' supplied case counts by ensuring it is a vector of integers of length at
+#' least `min_length` with entries greater than or equal to `min_count`.
+#' Execution is halted if these requirements are not satisfied.
+#'
+#' @param cases The case counts to be validated.
+#' @param min_length The minimum length of the vector of case counts.
+#' @param min_count The minimum value of the case count vector's entries.
+#'
+#' @noRd
+validate_cases <- function(cases, min_length, min_count) {
+  if (!is.vector(cases) || !is.numeric(cases) || any(floor(cases) != cases)) {
+    stop("Case counts must be a vector of integers.", call. = FALSE)
+  }
+  if (length(cases) < min_length) {
+    stop(paste("Case counts must have at least", min_length, "entries."),
+      call. = FALSE
+    )
+  }

+#' Real Number Testing
