In case of disobedience of any subpoena or the contumacy of any witness appearing before the administrator, the administrator may invoke the aid of the circuit court of Ingham county, or any circuit court of the state, and such court shall thereupon issue an order requiring the person subpoenaed to obey the subpoena, or to give evidence, or to produce books, accounts, papers, records, documents and files relative to the matter in question. Any failure to obey such order of the court may be punished by such court as a contempt thereof.(c) The administrator is hereby authorized and empowered to prescribe the various blank forms to be used by licensees in making reports, and to make rules and regulations relating to the enforcement of this act.
