In addition to the authority granted by law to the receiver relating to the taking of a deposition of a witness in a civil action, the receiver may request the court ex parte to issue a subpoena to compel the attendance and testimony of a witness before the receiver and the production of a book, account, record, paper, or correspondence, or other record relating to the receivership estate. For this purpose, the receiver or the receiver's designated representative may administer an oath or affirmation, examine a witness, or receive evidence. The court has statewide subpoena power and may compel attendance and production of a record before the receiver at the state trust company, the office of the receiver, or another location. In case of disobedience of a subpoena, or of the contumacy of a witness appearing before the receiver or the receiver's designated representative, the receiver may request and the court may issue an order requiring the person subpoenaed to obey the subpoena, give evidence, or produce any record relating to the matter in question.
