java.sql.Date (YYYY MM DD) to java.util.Date (DD MMM YYYY) conversion

Need advise how to send the java.sql.Date (YYYY-MM-DD) to java.util.Date (DD-MMM-YYYY).

The class java.sql.Date is designed to carry only a date. I have a table with column EXPIRY_DATE as DATE data type.

When I do the following

rs.getDate("EXPIRY_DATE")

it gives the output in the format YYYY-MM-DD. For example, 2015-04-05

I have a following Java bean

class ABC {
     java.util.Date expiryDate;
}

I want to return the above bean as it is to the JSP page view as JSON object. As we are using Spring REST Controller (@RestController Service), I wrote the following line,

@RestController
@RequestMapping("/url")
class someClass {

@RequestMapping("/url")
Object someWebServiceMethod() {
    ABC object = new ABC();
    object.setExpiryDate( resultSet.getDate("EXPIRY_DATE") );
    return object;
    }
}

My webservice returns the date as it is in java.sql.Date format like YYYY-MM-DD.

I want to send the output in DD-MMM-YYYY format to the JSP page view.

How to convert the same?

I have tried the following code,

NOTE: The below code is irrelevant to my above question. I need solution only for the above @RestController spring code

public static void convertDate() {
    String input = "2013-09-14";
    // DateFormat format = DateFormat.getInstance();
    SimpleDateFormat format1 = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-mm-dd");
    SimpleDateFormat format2 = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yy");
    Date date;
    try {
        date = format1.parse(input);
        String temp = format2.format(date);
        Date outDate = format2.parse(temp);
        System.out.println(outDate);
    } catch (ParseException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

But it gives the output as Mon Jan 14 00:00:00 IST 2013

I want to send the date, in the format dd-MMM-YYYY like 28-Feb-2015

Presently My @RestController code returns the java.sql.Date format like 2015-02-28. But I want to be 28-Feb-2015.

Please advise how to do java.sql.Date (YYYY-MM-DD) to java.util.Date (DD-MMM-YYYY) conversion

Thanks
