One alternative is:

don't do

<xsl:if test="$case = case2"><xsl:call-template name="Case2" >

just do

<xsl:call-template name="Case2" >

and in your generic file which has this line do
<xsl:template name="Case2"/>
so that the default behaviour is to do nothing (so you don'tneed to
guard this with an <xsl:if.

then your stylesheet for case 2 should xsl:import (not xsl:include)
this generic file and provide a more specific definition of this
template
<xsl:template name="Case2">
  <!-- Parameter getting from file3 frame.xsl -->
  <xsl:param name="case"/>
....
