Sec. 151-1129. - Procedural matters.
(a) The general counsel, complainant or respondent may request the ethics committee to issue subpoenas for the production of documents or attendance of witnesses at the formal hearing, pursuant to IC 36-3-4-24. (b) The ethics committee may grant or deny requests for subpoenas at its discretion by majority vote. (c) Should a person fail to comply with a subpoena issued by the committee, the committee shall refer the matter to the council for enforcement pursuant to IC 36-3-4-24(d). (d) The ethics committee or the council, when the matter is pending before the council, may at any time postpone proceedings with respect to a statement of allegation if it finds: (1) The prosecutor or other law enforcement agency requests deferring the matter pending investigation or court proceedings; or (2) The respondent is likely to assert a privilege against self-incrimination which would materially affect the complainant's ability to produce evidence of the alleged ethical violation.
