§ 906.8 — Subpoena powers

Iowa § 906.8

• Jurisdiction: Iowa
• Title XVI: CRIMINAL LAW AND PROCEDURE
• Ch. 906: PAROLES AND WORK RELEASE

Text

The board shall have power to issue subpoenas requiring the attendance of such witnesses
and the production of such records, books, papers and documents as it may deem necessary
for investigation of the case of any person before it. Subpoenas so issued may be served by

any peace officer, in the same manner as similar processes in the district court. Any person
who testifies falsely or fails to appear when subpoenaed, or fails or refuses to produce such
material pursuant to the subpoena, shall be subject to the same orders and penalties to which
a person before a court is subject. Any district court in this state, upon application of the
board, may compel the attendance of witnesses, the production of such material, and the
giving of testimony before the board, by an attachment for contempt or otherwise in the same
manner as production of evidence may be compelled before such district court.
