"Toll" in a court action context means to stop some type of time period, such as a statute of limitations, from running out. Tolling can be legal or equitable.
It is legal tolling when a statute forbids a claim from being raised until some other action is completed. The statute of limitations will be tolled or stopped until the other action is completed. Then it begins to run again. It is equitable, if the person raising a statute of limitations as a defense has actively concealed facts from another person that would have informed that other person of the cause of action despite exercise of due diligence by the other person.
