A quick definition of attorney not of record:

An attorney not of record is a lawyer who is not officially listed as representing a client in a legal case. This means that they cannot make decisions or take actions on behalf of the client without first being recognized as the attorney of record. Attorneys and agents who are registered to practice before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office are listed in a publication called Attorneys and Agents Registered to Practice.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: An attorney who is not officially listed as representing a party in a legal case. This means that they cannot take any actions on behalf of the party without first being recognized by the court.

Example: If a party in a lawsuit hires a new attorney, but that attorney has not yet been officially recognized by the court as the attorney of record, they are considered an attorney not of record. This means they cannot file any motions or make any appearances in court until they are recognized by the judge.

Explanation: The example illustrates how an attorney not of record is limited in their ability to act on behalf of a party in a legal case. Until they are officially recognized by the court, they cannot take any actions that would affect the outcome of the case. This is an important distinction in the legal profession, as it ensures that only authorized attorneys are able to represent parties in court.
