the jurisdiction of the Administration. This
broader statement conforms to the similarly
broad scope granted by present Art. 66 1/2,
§2-316(a) as to the issuance of summonses (see
§12-108 of this subtitle and its revisor's
note), and it also avoids repeated references
in the Maryland Vehicle Law to this right of
investigation (see, e.g., present Art. 66 1/2,
§3-208(b)).
12-108. AUTHORITY TO SUBPOENA WITNESSES AND TAKE
TESTIMONY.
(A) IN GENERAL.
IN ANY MATTER SUBJECT TO ITS JURISDICTION, THE
ADMINISTRATION MAY SUBPOENA ANY PERSON OR DOCUMENTS AND
TAKE THE TESTIMONY OF ANY PERSON, IN THE SAME MANNER AND
WITH THE SAME FEES AND MILEAGE AS PROVIDED FOR BY LAW IN
CIVIL CASES.
(B) ENFORCEMENT BY CIRCUIT COURT.
IF ANY PERSON FAILS TO COMPLY WITH A LAWFUL ORDER OR
SUBPOENA ISSUED BY THE ADMINISTRATION, THE ADMINISTRATION
MAY PETITION A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO COMPEL
OBEDIENCE TO THE SUBPOENA OR ORDER AND TO COMPEL THE
PRODUCTION OF RELEVANT DOCUMENTS AND OTHER EVIDENCE.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Art. 66 1/2, §2-319(e) and (f).
Its provisions, which were recently enacted by
Ch. 645, Acts of 1975, are retained in this
subtitle and substituted for the older,
essentially similar but more detailed,
provisions of present Art. 66 1/2, §2—316, to
provide one uniform statement of authority and
procedure for the issuance of subpoenas. (As
to the balance of present §2-319, see Subtitle
2 of this title.)
The only other changes are in style.
12-109. OATHS AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS; CERTIFICATIONS.
(A) OATHS AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS.
IN ADMINISTERING THE MARYLAND VEHICLE LAW, THE
ADMINISTRATOR OR ANY OTHER OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE OF THE
ADMINISTRATION DESIGNATED BY THE ADMINISTRATOR MAY
ADMINISTER OATHS AND TAKE ACKNOWLEDGMENTS OF SIGNATURES.
(B) CERTIFICATIONS.
(1) IF A PERSON IS REQUIRED TO SUBMIT ANY
STATEMENT OR INFORMATION TO THE ADMINISTRATION UNDER
OATH, VERIFICATION, AFFIRMATION, CERTIFICATION,
