I haven't tested this, but I *think* that a request containing an expired session will still return a non-null session object, but a different instance to the one that would have been returned pre-timeout. But I don't know that for a fact. why not just test it out yourself, it's not that hard, just shorten the timeout interval first so that you don't have to wait 30 mins to do your test ;)
