Example of validity?

In general terms, "validity" denotes "something acceptable within context". Thus, in an ordinary, everyday context, an example of "validity" would be a statement made which turns out to be true. Here, one would say that the statement made has "validity". By contrast, in a legal context, a statement made by a witness in a court case might be considered to lack "validity" because of certain legal strictures that prevent the witness' perspective from being considered by a jury. Many other examples could be provided, given the many different applications of "validity" that are possible.
