FAQ
An autopen is a device that mechanically reproduces a person's signature, often used by U.S. presidents for routine documents or when they are unavailable to sign in person. Presidents from both major parties, including George W. Bush and Barack Obama, have used autopens for various official documents.
Dr. Anthony Fauci may be affected because some of the documents voided by Trump could include executive orders, pardons, or contracts that directly or indirectly impacted his work or legal standing during the Biden administration.
Yes, the use of an autopen is legally valid as long as the president understands and gives explicit permission for its use. The legal effect is the same as a physical signature if proper authorization is given.
Trump's broad invalidation of autopen-signed documents could face legal challenges, as courts may question the scope and legality of voiding documents that were properly authorized and signed under accepted presidential practices.
If Biden is accused of perjury for claiming involvement in the autopen process, it could lead to legal proceedings, but such charges would require evidence that he knowingly made false statements about his authorization of the autopen.
