Don't know if this was posted yet but this is what FUNimation officially said on the matter.

FUNimation has confirmed to ANN that they will be releasing the first two volumes of Case Closed (Detective Conan) on August 24th and that volume 2 will contain episodes 53, 54 and 55, the first 3 episodes of season 3.

According to FUNimation representative Jeff Dronen, the inclusion of episodes from season 3 is "To give fans a look at episodes that will not have been seen on television, yet." When we asked how the rest of the series would be released we were informed that it was too early to dicuss release plans beyond the first two volumes.

Although FUNimation is releasing the first two volumes of Case Closed out of order, it appears that Cartoon Network will be broadcasting the series consecutively.

Also due on August 24th is a Case Closed starter set, including both volumes and a collector's box that can hold seven volumes.

So Vol. 1 is correct, Vol. 2 is to get a taste of what won't be airing (yet, which is the start of season 3), and it will air in order on CN.
