what about tolling
Tolling refers to the suspension or extension of the statute of limitations. In California, certain conditions can toll the statute of limitations, such as:
- Mental incapacity
- Physical incapacitation
- Active military duty
Given your situation, you might qualify for tolling due to your incapacitation and active duty status. Consult a lawyer to assess your specific case details.
