Court of Appeal judge Erastus Githinji has sued his employer challenging decision to retire him.
The Judicial Service Commission had issued him with notice to retire from July 1 on attaining the retirement age of 70.
However, the judge says that’s unfair because he has not attained the retirement age.
According to the judge, his date of birth is December 30, 1949 but the Judiciary has indicated he was born on January 1, 1949.
The mistake on his date of birth occurred when the Public Service Commission indicated on his job application form only the year of birth.
When an individual indicates only the year of birth it is assumed in law that the person was born the first day of the year.
This error is not of his making and exposes him to even criminal cases because he might be accused of falsifying his date of birth.
He says his official date of retirement ought to be midnight 29 day of December 2019.
And now he wants an order to quash notice by JSC and stop his retirement.

So he’s fighting to be in office for 11 more months…what will be achieve that he hasn’t achieved in the last 45yrs? These are the people jsc should investigate.
Well, if there was an error then he has every right to have it corrected and to serve his remaining term, hio salo inakuanga nono plus retirement is not easy for someone who is rooted in routine.
The Hon Judge did not indicate the day and the month of birth, the JSC in their wisdom which I applaud gave him notice to retire wef 1st July right in the middle of the year so that he does not lose or gain too much.
In the civil service the date you give on appointment is the one to be used to determine your date of retirement any other date given later ni porojo.
