Louisiana Revised Statutes Tit. 11, § 2016. Recovery of money owed system; reduction of benefits; interest

A. Whenever any person owes money to the system, the board of trustees may recover the amount owed by reducing the benefit owed to such person by the system such that the money owed back to the system and interest due thereon will be repaid within a time period calculated by allowing not less than twelve months for each three thousand dollars of repayment adjusted as necessary to assure that no period of repayment exceeds five years. The board shall notify the person of the amount owed and the amount and duration of the reduction in benefits thirty days prior to the occurrence of any reduction of such benefit.

B. The repayment of money owed the system as provided in Subsection A of this Section, the repayment of an overpayment as authorized by R.S. 11:192, or the repayment of any money illegally obtained from the system shall include interest thereon at the board-approved actuarial valuation rate, computed from thirty days after the date the system notifies such person of the amount owed.
