Has there been any court cases regarding the Third Amendment to the United States Constitution?

I just read a comment that implied that a law that hadn’t been used in a while was no longer relevant. Which made me curious as to what was the oldest unused US law that could still be considered relevant (not things like witchcraft or drinking after dark which would be judged to have been overridden by later laws). I immediately thought of the 3rd Amendment (no quartering of soldiers). Has the US government/military ever tried to violate the 3rd, and if so when?

I suspect this is tangential to what you are asking, but you might find Engblom v. Carey interesting -- https://casetext.com/case/engblom-v-carey
