Solution

  • Give this code a try:

    SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("d");
String date = format.format(new Date());
    
if(date.endsWith("1") && !date.endsWith("11"))
    format = new SimpleDateFormat("EE MMM d'st', yyyy");
else if(date.endsWith("2") && !date.endsWith("12"))
    format = new SimpleDateFormat("EE MMM d'nd', yyyy");
else if(date.endsWith("3") && !date.endsWith("13"))
    format = new SimpleDateFormat("EE MMM d'rd', yyyy");
else 
    format = new SimpleDateFormat("EE MMM d'th', yyyy");
    
String yourDate = format.format(new Date());
