Practice question
A properly made appointment extended by an Acting President has not been revoked. When the elected President returns, an official says the appointment automatically expires that day solely because the acting period ended. Does Section 14 support that assertion?
- Yes, because every acting-period appointment expires when the elected President returns.
- No, because the provision states that such appointments remain effective unless revoked under its terms.
- Yes, because all such appointments are necessarily void from the beginning.
- Yes, because the appointee must first win a national election.
- No, because the elected President can never revoke any acting-period appointment.
