No.526 of 2007 ---------------------------------------------- Dated 8th January, 2010. J U D G M E N T Balakrishnan Nair, J. The appellant/petitioner was an employee of the first respondent Bank. Feeling aggrieved by the stand of the Bank in refusing to correct his date of birth, the writ petition was filed. While filing the writ petition in 2005, he was aged 57. The writ petition was dismissed. Though the appeal was filed in 2007, it was admitted only on 6.11.2009. Though earlier, notice on admission was ordered on 28.2.2007, there was no interim order. So, during the pendency of the writ appeal, the appellant retired from service. In view of the said development, we think that no purpose will be served in considering the claim of the appellant for correction of his date of birth. Accordingly, the writ appeal is dismissed as infructuous. K.BALAKRISHNAN NAIR, JUDGE.
