A Pocket Veto is when the President fails to sign a bill within the 10 days allowed by the Constitution.
Congress must be in adjournment in order for a pocket veto to take effect.
If Congress is in session and the president fails to sign the bill, it becomes law without his signature.

A pocket veto is when the president is presented with an idea, or law from congress, and instead of saying he veto's it he just leaves it on his desk or "in his pocket" until the time to sign or veto expires. Once it expires its an automatic veto. Thats where you get pocket veto from.

It's when a President or Governor does not sign a bill into law or veto it, but does nothing until the bill expires. Sort of a default veto.

This is a food & drink category. A pocket veto is neither. Check in the political and government sections.

1. The indirect veto of a bill received by the President within ten days of the adjournment of Congress, effected by retaining the bill unsigned until Congress adjourns.
2. A similar action exercised by a state governor or other chief executive.
