Sec. 803. Special rule on statutory, regulatory, and judicial
deadlines
(a) In the case of any deadline for, relating to, or involving any
rule which does not take effect (or the effectiveness of which is
terminated) because of enactment of a joint resolution under section
802, that deadline is extended until the date 1 year after the date of
enactment of the joint resolution. Nothing in this subsection shall be
construed to affect a deadline merely by reason of the postponement of a
rule's effective date under section 801(a).
(b) The term ``deadline'' means any date certain for fulfilling any
obligation or exercising any authority established by or under any
Federal statute or regulation, or by or under any court order
implementing any Federal statute or regulation.
