Does res judicata apply to a plaintiff's claim as a result of a previous state court judgment?

"Under California law, res judicata applies not only to those claims actually litigated in a prior proceeding, but also to those which could have been litigated as part of that cause of action.... The fact that a plaintiff requests a different type of relief, or even presents a different legal theory, does not negate or lessen the binding effect of the previous state court judgment." (Id. at p. 1450; see also Hatch v. Bank of America (1960) 182 Cal.App.2d 206, 5 Cal.Rptr. 875.)
