      The system of functions \(\{\varphi_{n,k} \}_{n=1}^\infty\), \(k=0,1,\dots\), given by \[ \varphi_{n,k}(x):= P_k(x) P_{n+1}(x)- P_n(x)P_{k+1}(x), \qquad x\in (-1,1), \] where \(P_n\) are the Legendre polynomials on the interval \((-1,1)\), is the system of eigenfunctions of a second order differential equation which is not of Sturm-Liouville type. It is shown that this theorem is orthogonal with respect to a certain weight function and complete in a suitable Hilbert space.
