The petitioner is requesting the court to order the Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) to correct the petitioner's date of birth and middle name in their records based on the petitioner's true birth information.

The petitioner is requesting the Regional Trial Court to issue a writ of mandamus ordering the GSIS to correct the petitioner's date of birth from April 21, 1945 to February 11, 1945 and middle name from Santos to Casamayor in their records.

The petitioner had his birth registered late with the local civil registrar to reflect his true date of birth and name. He also filed for corrections with the Philippine Navy and Civil Service Commission, who both approved the changes.
