Conn. Gen. Stat. § 31-271
For the purpose of determining whether an employer is subject to this chapter or whether the reports filed by him are correct or sufficient or for the purpose of determining the amount of contributions due as provided in section 31-270 or for the purpose of determining whether the employer is able to pay outstanding contributions, interest or penalties due under this chapter, the administrator or the executive director may subpoena any person to appear before him or his agent at such place as may be designated in such subpoena to examine such person under oath and he may compel the attendance before him or his agent of any such person and the production of books and papers by subpoena. If any person disobeys such process or, having appeared in obedience thereto, refuses to answer any pertinent question put to him, said administrator or executive director may apply to the Superior Court, or to a judge of said court if the same is not in session, setting forth such disobedience to process or refusal to answer, and said court or such judge, as the case may be, thereupon shall cite such person to appear before him and shall inquire into the facts set forth in such application and, upon finding the allegations in such application to be true, shall commit such person to a community correctional center until he testifies, but not for a longer period than sixty days.
