OPINION

FEDERICO G. HINOJOSA, Jr., Justice.

The trial court dismissed with prejudice appellant’s petition to voluntarily legitimate his daughter. By two points of error, appellant complains that the trial court erred in dismissing the suit with prejudice without appointing a guardian ad litem for the child and without any party requesting dismissal with prejudice. We agree that the trial court erred in dismissing appellant’s suit with prejudice. We modify the trial court’s judgment to reflect dismissal of the suit without prejudice, and, as modified, affirm the trial court’s judgment.
