The commission conducting a hearing in
any particular case shall have power to subpoena and order production
of books and papers. In any hearing, the process issued by the
commission shall extend to all parts of the state and the process shall
be served either in like manner as are served writs of subpoena in the
circuit court or by any person designated by the commission for that
purpose. The person serving the process shall receive such
compensation as may be allowed by the commission not to exceed the
fee prescribed by law for similar services in the circuit courts and the
fees shall be paid in the same manner as provided in this chapter for
fees of witnesses subpoenaed at the instance of the commission. All
witnesses who shall be subpoenaed and who appear in any proceeding
before the commission shall receive the same fees and mileage as
allowed by law to witnesses in the circuit courts, which amount shall
be paid by the party at whose instance the subpoena was issued or upon
whose behalf the witness has been called. When any witness who has
not been subpoenaed at the instance of any party to the proceeding
shall be subpoenaed at the instance of the commission the fees and
mileage of the witness shall be paid from the funds appropriated to the
use of the commission in the same manner as other expenses of the
commission are paid.
Where in any proceeding before the commission, any witness shall
fail or refuse to attend upon subpoena issued by the commission or any
of their representatives, or appearing, shall refuse to testify or shall
refuse to produce any books and papers the production of which is
called for by the subpoena, the attendance of any witness and the
giving of the testimony of the witness and the production of the books
and papers required shall be enforced by any circuit court, superior
court, or probate court of this state.
