What about a SELECT syntax like that?

SELECT
    CASE WHEN bar.foo_id IS NULL THEN bar.*
    ELSE foo.*
FROM foo, bar

Anyway, I need a SELECT query that gets data from a FIRST TABLE if a
specific value in a SECOND TABLE is NULL or from SECOND TABLE itself if
the value IS NOT NULL.

Any suggestion?

Thank you!
