A quick definition of recordari:

Recordari: A special legal document that can be used instead of an appeal to review a decision made by a lower court that is not officially recorded. This type of document is mostly used in North Carolina and is not very common in other states. It is also sometimes spelled as "recordare".

A more thorough explanation:

RECORDARI

Recordari (ree-kor-dair-I) is a legal writ used as a substitute for an appeal to bring up for review a judgment of a justice of the peace or other court not of record.

Writs of recordari are most commonly used in North Carolina but are used infrequently in other states.

For instance, if a person is not satisfied with the judgment given by a justice of the peace, they can file a recordari to have the judgment reviewed by a higher court.

Another example is if a person is convicted in a court that is not of record, they can file a recordari to have the conviction reviewed by a higher court.

These examples illustrate how recordari is used as a legal writ to bring up for review a judgment of a lower court not of record.
