My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: Texas
While employed at a company I was issued tuition reimbursement for college classes taken. Upon resigning due to moving cities with my husbands employer, I was told I had to repay what was paid to me because company policy states that any employee who does not remain employed at least 12 months from the time of reimbursement must repay. So I signed a payment agreement that I would make monthly payments until the $2800 is paid. However, I was notified by another former employee who also received tuition reimbursement, that she was not held liable for her amount. She, too, voluntarily resigned, less than one year from reimbursement. I wrote several letters to the company asking why I am being treated differently and the only response I get is that "how another employee is treated has no bearing on the fact that I signed an agreement and owe them the money."

They have sent this to a collection agency and I want the debt forgiven since the other employee's was forgiven. Am I wrong? Can I pursue legal action?
