In the Add search terms query window, West's pre-selected search terms are shown. Note there are no topic and key numbers lists (as would be the case, if we were searching Cases without West Headnotes or a secondary source).  This is because the Internet and cyberlaw are such new topics that they have no West topic and key number (and may not for many years).  At the end of West's pre-selected search string, add your own terms.  In this case, we have added "person! /5 of jurisdiction" to pick up personal jurisdiction, jurisdiction of the person, in personam jurisdiction, etc.
The query terms are shown in the edit query box, which is also where you add your own terms.
