Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court ruled that the 1st Respondent's claim to change his date of birth from 12th June 1927 to 29th August 1930 was not substantiated by adequate evidence, as he failed to provide documentation proving that the company was informed of the correction in 1953. The Court emphasized the importance of maintaining consistency in employment records and upheld the trial court's decision to deny the interim injunction sought by the 1st Respondent. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the retirement date based on the original records.
