Is there a way to not italicize a word in a textit expression?

I would like to have a sentence like this:




In the Smith case, the Supreme Court held...




where the entire sentence is in italics except for "Smith" since it is the short name of a case. (You can imagine many other examples like this with movies, etc.)



I would like to be able to do something like:



textitIn the textitSmith case, the Supreme Court held...


However, the above code makes everything italics. Is there something I can do to make Smith non-italicized without resorting to the below code?



textitIn the Smith textitcase, the Supreme Court held...


The only problem I have with that piece of code is that it makes editing problematic if I decide that I'd rather have "Smith" at another place in the sentence.



I appreciate any and all help -- even if the help is simply that the solution I want does not exist.

          That's exactly what emph does:



          documentclassarticle

          begindocument

          emphIn the emphSmith case, the Supreme Court helddots

          enddocument


          or, if you prefer to manually control that, then you can use textup:



          documentclassarticle

          begindocument

          textitIn the textupSmith case, the Supreme Court helddots

          enddocument
