How to bring a JPanel to the front

I am making a solitaire game for my parents consisting of 52 Cards
(JPanels) in a JFrame. When I press and drag a card around I naturally
would like it to be on top or in the front of the rest of the cards. How
can I sort of put this in the front/on top of the others?

I played around with ZOrder without success.

Thanks everyone and keep up the good work!

0th Component is on top.

alternatively you can use JDesktopPane which gives you more possibilities.
