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.

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