Section 31-376-29 - Issuance of subpoenas: Petitions to revoke or modify subpoenas: Right to inspect or copy data(a) Any member of the Commission shall, on the application of any party directed to the Commission, forthwith issue subpoenas requiring the attendance and testimony of witnesses and the production of any evidence, including relevant books, records, correspondence, or documents, in his possession or under his control. Applications for subpoenas if filed subsequent to the assignment of the case to a Hearing Officer, shall be filed with the Hearing Officer. A Hearing Officer shall grant the application on behalf of any member of the Commission. Applications for subpoenas may be made ex parte. The subpoena shall show on its face the name and address of the party at whose request the subpoena was issued.(b) Any person served with a subpoena, whether ad testificandum or duces tecum, shall within 5 days after the date of service of the subpoena upon him, move in writing to revoke or modify the subpoena if he does not intend to comply. All motions to revoke or modify shall be served on the party at whose request the subpoena was issued. The Hearing Officer or the Commission, as the case may be, shall revoke or modify the subpoena if in its opinion the evidence whose production is required does not relate to any matter under investigation or in question in the proceedings or the subpoena does not describe with sufficient particularity the evidence whose production is required, or if for any other reason sufficient in law the subpoena is otherwise invalid. The Hearing Officer or the Commission, as the case may be, shall make a simple statement of procedural or other grounds for the ruling on the motion to revoke or modify. The motion to revoke or modify, any answer filed thereto, and any ruling thereon shall become a part of the record.(c) Persons compelled to submit data or evidence at a public proceeding are entitled to retain, or on payment of lawfully prescribed costs, to procure copies of transcripts of the date or evidence submitted by them.(d) Upon the failure of any person to comply with a subpoena issued upon the request of a party, the Commission by its counsel shall initiate proceedings in the appropriate district court for the enforcement thereof, if in its judgment the enforcement of such subpoena would be consistent with law and with policies of the Act. Neither the Commission nor its counsel shall be deemed thereby to have assumed responsibility for the effective prosecution of the same before the court.Conn. Agencies Regs. § 31-376-29
