This case has been cited 4 times or more.

	GR No. 167750 2010-03-15	BANK OF PHILIPPINE ISLANDS v. REYNALD R. SUAREZ CARPIO, J.
Negligence is defined as "the omission to do something which a reasonable man, guided upon those considerations which ordinarily regulate the conduct of human affairs, would do, or the doing of something which a prudent man and reasonable man could not do."[11] The question concerning BPI's negligence, however, depends on whether BPI indeed confirmed the same-day crediting of the RCBC check's face value to Suarez's BPI account.
	GR NO. 153817 2006-03-31	NOLITO D. SOLMAYOR v. ANTONIO L. ARROYO CHICO-NAZARIO, J.
Well settled is the principle that by reason of the special knowledge and expertise of administrative agencies over matters falling under their jurisdiction, they are in a better position to pass judgment thereon; thus their findings of fact in that regard are generally accorded great respect, if not finality, by the courts.[25] Accordingly, since specialized government agencies tasked to determine the classification of parcels of land, such as the Bureau of Soils and the HLURB, among other agencies, have already certified that the subject land is residential/commercial, the Court must accord such conclusions great respect, if not finality, in the absence of evidence to the contrary.
	GR No. 161172 2004-12-13	NADINE ROSARIO M. MORALES v. BOARD OF REGENTS OF UNIVERSITY OF PHILIPPINES CHICO-NAZARIO, J.
In the case of University of the Philippines v. Ayson,[37] UP has been likened to an administrative agency whose findings must be accorded respect within its areas of competence. Well-settled is the principle that by reason of the special knowledge and expertise of administrative agencies over matters falling under their jurisdiction, they are in a better position to pass judgment thereon; thus, their findings of fact in that regard are generally accorded great respect, if not finality, by the courts.[38] Accordingly, the conclusion arrived at by the UP Board of Regents that petitioner's grades in German 10 and 11 should not be included in computing her GWA must be respected and given finality, the interpretation and application of Article 410 of the UP Code being within the competence and expertise of the Department of European Languages, the College of Arts and Letters and the University Council to make.
	GR No. 142503 2003-06-20	ROMUALDO C. PEREZ v. APOLONIO CRUZ QUISUMBING, J.
Equally telling is the factual finding by the Regional Executive Director of the DENR, Region III, that petitioner failed to overcome the presumption of regularity of the notarized Deed of Sale upon which respondent based his claim of ownership. Thus, the DENR likewise disbelieved Perez's claim of forgery. Needless to stress, findings of fact of an administrative agency are binding and conclusive upon this Court, for as long as substantial evidence supports said factual findings. It is not the task of an appellate court to weigh once more the evidence submitted before the administrative body and to substitute its own judgment for that of the administrative agency concerning sufficiency of evidence.[28] All things considered, we are persuaded that respondent Cruz successfully proved his right to retain possession of the disputed parcel of land.
