A more thorough explanation:

JUS LEGITIMUM

jus legitimum (pronounced juh-s luh-jit-uh-muhm) is a Latin term used in civil law to refer to a right that can be enforced by law.

• A person's right to inherit property from their parents is an example of jus legitimum.
• Another example is a tenant's right to live in a rental property and the landlord's obligation to maintain the property in a habitable condition.

These examples illustrate how jus legitimum refers to a legal right that can be enforced in court. In the case of inheritance, if a person's right to inherit is being challenged, they can go to court to enforce their right. Similarly, if a landlord is not fulfilling their obligation to maintain a rental property, a tenant can take legal action to enforce their right to a habitable living space.
