	GR No. 148076 2011-01-21	ANTONIO M. CARANDANG v. ANIANO A. DESIERTO BERSAMIN, J.
It is clear, therefore, that a corporation is considered a government-owned or -controlled corporation only when the Government directly or indirectly owns or controls at least a majority or 51% share of the capital stock. Applying this statutory criterion, the Court ruled in Leyson, Jr. v. Office of the Ombudsman:[27]
	GR NOS. 142286-87 2005-04-15	KOREA EXCHANGE BANK v. ROGELIO C. GONZALES CALLEJO, SR., J.
Otherwise stated, there is forum shopping where a litigant sues the same party against whom another action or actions for the alleged violation of the same right and the enforcement of the same relief is/are still pending. The defense of litis pendentia in one case is a bar to the other/others; and, a final judgment is one that would constitute res judicata and thus would cause the dismissal of the rest. Absolute identity of parties is not required. It is enough that there is substantial identity of parties.[42] It is enough that the party against whom the estoppel is set up is actually a party to the former case.[43] There is identity of causes of action if the same evidence will sustain the second action. The principle applies even if the relief sought in the two cases may be different.[44] Forum shopping consists of filing multiple suits involving the same parties for the same cause of action, either simultaneously or successively, for the purpose of obtaining a favorable judgment.[45]
	GR NO. 164338 2005-01-17	GUARANTEED HOTELS v. JOSEFINA S. BALTAO YNARES-SANTIAGO, J.
Forum shopping consists of filing multiple suits involving the same parties for the same cause of action, either simultaneously or successively, for the purpose of obtaining a favorable judgment.[16]
	GR No. 150732 2004-08-31	TOMAS G. VELASQUEZ v. HELEN B. HERNANDEZ TINGA, J,
Forum shopping consists of filing of multiple suits involving the same parties for the same cause of action, either simultaneously or successively, for the purpose of obtaining a favorable judgment.[5] It may also consist in a party against whom an adverse judgment has been rendered in one forum, seeking another and possibly favorable opinion in another forum other than by appeal or special civil action of certiorari.[6]
