How do you get a switch statement in android to recognize a checkbox?

I would like to clean up my code and have my checkbox do some actions from the switch statement inside onOptionsItemSelected(). Instead, I have an onClick listener in onCreateOptionsMenu for my custom checkbox. This works, but I would like to understand how to have code inside case R.id.star_favorite: called.

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
    checkBox = (CheckBox) menu.findItem(R.id.star_favorite).getActionView();
    checkBox.setButtonDrawable(R.drawable.favorite_checkbox);
    if(currentQuote != null) {
        currentQuoteIsFavorite = currentQuote.getFavorite();
        checkBox.setChecked(currentQuoteIsFavorite);
    }
    checkBox.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            if(currentQuote != null) {
                currentQuoteIsFavorite = !currentQuoteIsFavorite;
                updateFavorite(currentQuoteIsFavorite);
            } else {
                checkBox.setChecked(false);
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "No Quote To Save", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        }
    });
    return true;
}

@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    switch(item.getItemId()) {
        case R.id.star_favorite:
            //already tried putting code like updateFavorite() inside here but it's not called
            Toast.makeText(this, "Checkbox clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            if(currentQuote != null) {
                currentQuoteIsFavorite = !currentQuoteIsFavorite;
                updateFavorite(currentQuoteIsFavorite);
            } else {
                checkBox.setChecked(false);
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "No Quote To Save", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        case R.id.share_quote:
            Log.d("onOptionsItemSelected", "case R.id.share_quote selected");
            shareQuote();
            break;
        case R.id.menu:
            Log.d("onOptionsItemSelected", "case R.id.menu selected");

            break;
    }
    return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
