I need I validation rule to change the status picklist on case object to value "Submit to Client" when checkbox with the same "Submit to Client" is ticked. Could you please advise how this can be achieved as well as please provide some relevant example.

Validation rules can only add errors to records being saved. It sounds like you want to use a workflow rule.– martinJun 27, 2016 at 14:04
