(a) If the person cited refuses to appear and submit to an
examination or to answer interrogatories put to him touching the
matters of complaint, the court may commit him to the county
jail until he submits to the order of the court or is discharged
according to law. If upon examination it appears that he has
concealed, embezzled, smuggled, conveyed away or disposed of any
monies, goods or chattels of the decedent or has in his
possession or knowledge any deeds, conveyances, bonds, contracts
or other writings containing evidence of or tending to disclose
the right, title, interest or claim of the decedent to any real
or personal estate, claim or demand, or any lost will of the
decedent, an order may be made requiring the person to disclose
his knowledge thereof to the personal representative and he may
be committed to the county jail until the order is complied with
or he is discharged according to law.
(b) All interrogatories and answers shall be in writing,
signed by the party examined and filed in the court. The order
for disclosure made upon the examination is prima facie evidence
of the right of the personal representative to the property in
any action brought for the recovery thereof. Any judgment
recovered shall be for double the value of the property as
assessed by the court, or for return of the property and damages
in addition thereto equal to the value of the property. In
addition to the examination of the party, witnesses may be
produced and examined on either side.
