Legacy Classes are code that was "handed down" from an older application or version of the application.
I have heard cases where parts of a C++ application were being re-written in Java, and the original c++ classes were refered to as the Legacy classes or legacy code.
As a rule though, one usually thinks of non-OO languages when talking about legacy code.
