2. An authorized agent refers to a person who, on the entrustment of the parties, legal agents and legal agents, exercises the power of agency in litigation and acts on his own behalf. Authorized agents are generally people who are familiar with the law or lawyers.
3. Compared with legal agency, principal-agent has the following characteristics:
First, the occurrence of agency right is based on the authorization of the parties, legal agents and legal representatives, rather than legal provisions.
Second, the matters and authority of the agency, except those specially stipulated by law, are generally decided by the principal himself, and the entrusted agent can only carry out activities within the scope authorized by the principal.
Third, if a party, legal representative or legal representative entrusts another person to represent the lawsuit, he must entrust an agent to submit a power of attorney to the sued people's court. Power of attorney is a litigation document in which the parties declare to the people's court that they entrust others to find a lawsuit, and it is also a proof document that the entrusted agent has obtained the qualification of entrusted agent to conduct litigation for the client.
4. According to Article 50 of the Civil Procedure Law: "To entrust others to represent litigation, a power of attorney signed or sealed by the client must be submitted to the people's court." The power of attorney must indicate the entrusted matters and authority. An agent ad litem must have the special authorization of the client, and can admit, waive or change the claim, make a settlement, file a counterclaim or appeal on his behalf. ""The power of attorney sent or entrusted by China people and China citizens living abroad must be authenticated by China people and China embassies and consulates in that country; If there is no embassy or consulate, it shall be certified by the embassy or consulate of a third country that has diplomatic relations with the people of China, and then by the entrusted agent of the people of China and the embassy or consulate of China in a third country, or by the local patriotic overseas Chinese group. "
5. Principal-agent is an agency system that provides litigation convenience for the parties and safeguards their legitimate rights and interests. In real life, some parties are difficult to litigate in person for some reasons, or need help from others in litigation due to lack of legal knowledge and litigation experience, which requires entrusting others to represent them. The parties can fully exercise their litigation rights, fulfill their litigation obligations and better safeguard their legitimate rights and interests by entrusting agents to conduct litigation.
