	GR No. 164344 2008-12-23	KENJI OKADA v. SECURITY PACIFIC ASSURANCE CORPORATION REYES, R.T., J.
Verily, petitioner is not without fault for its failure to observe the proper manner of substituting counsels provided for in Rule 138, Section 26[41] of the Rules of Court. Like other procedural lapses, this Court has consistently propounded that the application of technical rules of procedure may be relaxed to serve the demands of substantial justice.[42]
	GR NO. 167798 2006-04-19	KILUSANG MAYO UNO v. DIRECTOR-GENERAL CARPIO, J.
EO 420 applies only to government entities that already maintain ID systems and issue ID cards pursuant to their regular functions under existing laws. EO 420 does not grant such government entities any power that they do not already possess under existing laws. In contrast, the assailed executive issuance in Ople v. Torres sought to establish a "National Computerized Identification Reference System,"[19] a national ID system that did not exist prior to the assailed executive issuance. Obviously, a national ID card system requires legislation because it creates a new national data collection and card issuance system where none existed before.
