Re: form

That just means that someone finally noticed that he was in pro per at the very beginning and therefore needed to file that form when he hired an attorney. After the case is over the attorney should file another form to withdraw from the case. Otherwise, you may serve the attorney if you file a motion and he/she will have to try to locate the client.
