Q: Can SOL not apply in certain cases connected to intentional prevention of bringing a legal case forward in CA?

Something took place which prevented action in bringing proper legal action forward at a certain time. It's something dealing with civil rights, and human rights violations.

There are circumstances that toll the statute of limitations. A little more detail than an "intentional prevention of bringing a legal case forward" will be needed to evaluate your situation.
