If a statute of limitations has “tolled,” it means that the statute of limitations ______________.
  1. Has expired.
  2. Has started anew.
  3. Has been temporarily suspended.
  4. Has been repealed.
Explanation
Answer: C - Has been temporarily suspended. A statute of limitations may be tolled by a defendant’s infancy (being a minor), imprisonment, insanity, or other situations. In effect, tolling of the statute of limitations stops the running of the time period for filing suit until the defendant is no longer under the incapacity.
