Legitimation is the voluntary act or process of legitimating a child born out of wedlock. It exists solely as a result of the law and policy of each jurisdiction and statutes must be construed and given effect according to the construction of the courts and legislatures of such states. Depending on the jurisdiction, legitimation may be accomplished by petition in a judicial proceeding or by legal recognition (e.g., by affidavit) of the illegitimate by the parent, or by either method.
