Sec. 2032.
(1) The commissioner, upon the hearing referred to in section 2030, may administer oaths, examine and cross examine witnesses, and receive oral and documentary evidence. Any party to the cause shall have the power to compel the subpoena of witnesses, compel their attendance, and require the production of books, papers, records, correspondence, or other documents which he deems relevant to the inquiry. In case of a refusal of any person to comply with any subpoena issued hereunder or to testify with respect to any matter concerning which he may be lawfully interrogated, the circuit court of Ingham county or the county where such party resides, on application of any party to the cause, may issue an order requiring such person to comply with such subpoena and to testify; and any failure to obey any such order of the court may be punished by the court as a contempt thereof.
(2) The commissioner, upon such hearing, may, and upon the request of any party to the cause shall, cause to be made a stenographic record of all the evidence and all the proceedings had at such hearing. If no stenographic record is made and if a judicial review is sought, the commissioner shall prepare a statement of the evidence and proceeding for use on review.
