a.6 months
b.3 years
c.2 years
d.1 year
解析
A claim for unpaid wages or overtime founded on a statutory liability (such as the Labor Code) generally has a 3-year statute of limitations under Code of Civil Procedure §338. If the claim is also pursued as an unfair business practice, the reach can extend to 4 years, and a written-contract wage theory can be 4 years, but the baseline statutory period for overtime is 3 years.
