Under US patent laws and procedures, the USPTO can suspend an application for a patent for various reasons.
However, after a patent is issued, a patent generally expires naturally, although (in theory) a federal court can order that certain unlawfully obtained portions (claims) can be cancelled, or that the termination date of a particular patent be changed to correspond to that of an earlier-filed application (effectively shortening the duration of the second patent).
