U.S. Code as of:
01/19/04
Section 610. Subpena, discovery, and deposition
A member of an agency board of contract appeals may administer
oaths to witnesses, authorize depositions and discovery
proceedings, and require by subpena the attendance of witnesses,
and production of books and papers, for the taking of testimony or
evidence by deposition or in the hearing of an appeal by the agency
board. In case of contumacy or refusal to obey a subpena by a
person who resides, is found, or transacts business within the
jurisdiction of a United States district court, the court, upon
application of the agency board through the Attorney General; or
upon application by the board of contract appeals of the Tennessee
Valley Authority, shall have jurisdiction to issue the person an
order requiring him to appear before the agency board or a member
thereof, to produce evidence or to give testimony, or both. Any
failure of any such person to obey the order of the court may be
punished by the court as a contempt thereof.
