The DOJ's investigation into former President Biden's use of an autopen, particularly regarding pardons and commutations, is ongoing, but Biden is unlikely to face criminal charges.
The Department of Justice is currently investigating the use of an autopen by former President Joe Biden during his last months in office, particularly in regards to the pardons and commutations he issued. A senior DOJ official confirmed that the investigation is still active and not closed, suggesting that investigators are thoroughly scrutinizing the clemency actions undertaken by Biden. However, it was emphasized that the use of an autopen is generally considered to be within the bounds of established law as long as the president authorizes it.
