- "Quick Print" the icon is second from the left with red on the printer image, or
- "Print" the next icon to the right, all in black and white.

Your choice determines the destination of your print job.

If you select Quick Print, a box pops up asking you to select a printer. You will notice all the selections relate to your default setting of the attached network printer; you won't see the Westlaw printers that print your job for free. If you send the print job this way, it will go to the SmartPrint printers; you would then have to release the job - and pay - to have it printed.

However, if you select the plain Print icon one over to the right, your job will go to the Westlaw printers in the room just down the hall. After a short wait - as it works through Westlaw's immense network - your free print job will appear.

What if you mistakenly sent it using Quick Print?

- If you don't release the job from the SmartPrinter, you don't have to pay for it and it will be cleared from the system within a few hours - no harm, no foul.

- Once it's gone to the SmartPrint system the folks at Westlaw CANNOT redirect the print job.

- However, you can resend the print job by logging back onto Westlaw, opening the Research Trail, and resending the documents to the free, Print option Westlaw printers.

The International Court of Justice released its judgment today in the Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (Bosnia and Herzegovina v. Serbia and Montenegro). The Court concluded that Serbia did not commit genocide but failed to fulfill its obligations under the Convention to prevent genocide in Srebrenica and did not cooperate fully with the International Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia.

In a statement to the press, the Court’s President, Judge Rosalyn Higgins, explained details of the judgment. In addition to her remarks and the complete text of the judgment, the ICJ website includes an MP3 file of Judge Higgins reading the judgment’s operative clause. Reuters coverage includes a video from the court.

In a decision released today, the Supreme Court of Canada unanimously invalidated anti-terrorism provisions of Canadian immigration law as a violation of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. The decision – Charkaoui v. Canada, 2007 SCC 9 – is available online. The invalidated provisions, regarding a security certificate program that allowed authorities to detain suspected terrorists indefinitely, are part of Canada’s 2001 Immigration and Refugee Protection Act: chapter 27, sections 33, 77 to 85, 112, and 115. U.S., Canadian, British, and French media provide additional details.

Today’s United States Supreme Court opinion in Philip Morris USA v. Williams is available at the Supreme Court website. The 5-4 decision invalidates a $79.5 million punitive damages award to the widow of a man who died from lung cancer. Jurors in the case were not explicitly instructed that they could not use a punitive damages award to punish the defendant for harm done to non-parties. A 2006 Oregon Supreme Court decision had upheld the award because of "extreme and outrageous circumstances."
