Section 67-409 - ATTENDANCE OF WITNESSES - REFUSAL TO OBEY SUBPOENA A CONTEMPT

If any witness neglects or refuses to obey such subpoena, or appearing, refuses to testify, or produce the subpoenaed documents or other materials, the senate or house may, by resolution entered on the journal, cite the witness for contempt. It shall be the duty of the district court, upon application of the presiding officer of the house resolving to cite the witness for contempt, to compel obedience by proceedings for contempt, as in the case of disobedience of the requirements of a subpoena issued from the court or the refusal to testify or produce documents or other materials in court.
