In Catholic canon law, a validation of marriage or convalidation of marriage is the validation of a Catholic putative marriage. A putative marriage is one when at least one party to the marriage wrongly believes it to be valid.[1] Validation involves the removal of a canonical impediment, or its dispensation, or the removal of defective consent.[2][3] However, the children of a putative marriage are legitimate.[4]
