Narrative:

I was working the sectors 73/53/54 combined with a low to average traffic complexity. I looked to the northeastern section of my sector which is adjacent to sector 74 (charleston sector); this sector was combined with sector 71 (flourence). I observed a pvd on my scope with the callsign of air carrier X. The aircraft was inside my sector boundary and I noticed the altitude of the aircraft leaving 11;000 ft climbing to FL230 in the data block. I was working with a radar associate at the time of the incident. I ask the radar associate if they had received a point out on the aircraft and their answer was no. Have the controller working sector 71/74 complete his pointout by calling the sector and advising them he will be climbing aircraft in their airspace so that safety is not compromised.
