xml along with jsp?

I want to know how to retrieve values from the below xml.

Because the firstname and the lastName are dynamically populated from the jsp?

<c:case>

<c:data>

name

<c:party type="personName">

firstName

<c:rule>none</c:rule>

</c:party>

<c:party type="personName">

lastName

<c:rule>lower</c:rule>

</c:party>

</c:data>

</c:case>
