## Abstract

The Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) published a final rule in the Federal Register of July 24, 1998, that revised certain patent fee amounts for fiscal year 1999. Since then, a continuing resolution appropriations bill has been passed by the Congress and signed by the President. The continuing resolution maintains patent fees at their September 1998 (fiscal year 1998) rates through October 9, 1998. This document delays the effective date of the PTO's final rule until October 10, 1998, unless it is superseded by law.
