Here simple code for this:

  private Date parseDate(String date) {
    SimpleDateFormat curFormater = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'hh:mm:ss.S'Z'");
    Date dateObj = new Date();
    try {
      dateObj = curFormater.parse(date);
    } catch (ParseException e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }
    return dateObj;
  }
