§1004. False statements or falsification of records; penalty; liability; correction of errors
A. Any person who knowingly makes any false statement or falsifies or permits to be falsified any record or records affecting this retirement system in any attempt to defraud the same shall be fined not to exceed three hundred dollars or imprisoned for not more than six months or both. Should any change or error in the records result in any member or beneficiary receiving from the retirement system more or less than he would have been entitled to receive had the records been correct, the board of trustees shall make the necessary corrections and adjustments in payment.

C. In the event payments made to a retired member or to his beneficiary are greater than the member's contribution to the system and the member did not actually drive the school bus as indicated on the checklist, then the retired member, his beneficiary, the supervisor of transportation, the parish or city superintendent, the school official signing the checklist, and the school board who have knowingly falsified the reports mentioned in Subsections A and B shall be liable for the excess amounts paid to the retired member or to his beneficiary.
The provisions of this Section shall be enforced by the attorney general and the district attorney having proper jurisdiction upon the written request therefor of the board of trustees. In the event action to enforce the provisions of this Section is not taken within a reasonable period of time after the request of the board of trustees, then the district attorney having jurisdiction in the parish where the board of trustees is domiciled shall enforce the provisions of this Section upon the written request of the board of trustees.
