R2, R3 BY GOVT. PLEADER SRI.I.V.PRAMOD THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 21/12/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: THOTTATHIL B.RADHAKRISHNAN, J. ------------------------------------------- W.P(C).No.36852 OF 2009 ------------------------------------------- Dated this the 21st day of December, 2009 JUDGMENT The petitioner seeks directions and orders in relation to the correction of date of birth of his daughter who is now aged 35 years. Though the counsel for the petitioner states that his client had been prosecuting matters on behalf of his daughter who is currently in the United States, learned counsel for the municipality is fairly justified in stating that it may not be reasonable to accede to the request because, in these days, conflict of interest could occur even within families. This writ petition is hence dismissed without prejudice to the right of the petitioner's daughter to move this Court if and when necessary. Sd/- THOTTATHIL B.RADHAKRISHNAN, Judge. kkb.24/12.
