    A labor union filed a petition with the Court of Industrial Relations against Metropolitan Transportation Service (Metran) alleging that 30 of its members were employed by Metran and demanding that 9 provisions be granted. Metran argued the case should be dismissed because it is part of the Republic of the Philippines and cannot be sued. The court ruled that Metran was an office of the government, unincorporated and without legal personality, and therefore incapable of being sued as a claim against it would in effect be a suit against the government which requires consent.

    METRAN vs. PAREDES, 79 Phil.

    819
    FACTS:
    Prior to the Court of Industrial Relations a petition was filed in case No. 36-
    V entitled "National Labor Union, versus Metropolitan Transportation
    Service (Metran)," wherein petitioner alleged that it was a legitimate labor
    organization, thirty of whose affiliated members were working and under
    the employ of the respondent; that the respondent "is a semi-governmental
    transportation entity, popularly known as `Metran, having nine demands at
    length set forth in said petition be granted.
    Wherefore, Metran filed a petition for the dismissal of the case "on the
    ground that it belongs to the Republic of the Philippines and as such, it
    cannot be sued". It is an office "under the supervision and control of the
    Secretary of Public Works and Communications," under Executive Order
    No. 59.

    ISSUE: Whether or not Metran can be able to invoke the Doctrine of State
    Immunity.

    RULING:
    Yes, the court held that Metran was a mere office or agency of the
    government, unincorporated and possessing no juridical personality under
    the law, incapable of suing or being sued and that a claim against it would
    in effect be a suit against the Government, which suit may not prosper
    without the Government's consent.
