Cantonment, FL asked in Employment Law for Louisiana

Q: How long does the State of Louisiana have to recoup overpayment of wages from a former state employee?

employees? Worked for the State of Louisiana from 2003-2006. I just received a letter from a debt collection agency saying I owed the state money for overpayment of wages. Is there some sort of statute of limitations for the recouping of these overpaid wages?
