(210 ILCS 95/19) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 779)
Sec. 19.
All subpoenas issued by the Director or Hearing Officer may be
served as provided for in a civil action. The fees of witnesses for attendance and
travel shall be the same as the fees for witnesses before the circuit court
and shall be paid by the party to such proceeding at whose request the
subpoena is issued. If such subpoena is issued at the request of the
Department, the witness fee shall be paid as an administrative expense.
In cases of refusal of a witness to attend or testify, or to produce
books or papers, concerning any matter upon which he might be lawfully
examined, the circuit court of the county where the hearing is held, upon
application of any party to the proceeding, may compel
obedience by proceeding as for contempt.
