Idaho State Statutes - Idaho Attorney Directory

(1) When the
prosecuting attorney of any county has reason to suspect crime or corruption,
within his jurisdiction, and there is reason to suspect that there are persons
who may be able to give material testimony or provide material evidence
concerning such suspected crime or corruption, such attorney may issue
subpoenas directed to such persons commanding them to appear at a designated
time and place in said county before the special inquiry judge and to then and
there answer such questions under oath concerning the suspected crime or
corruption as may be asked by the prosecuting attorney or special inquiry
judge.
(2) At any time after service of such subpoenas and before the return
date thereof, the prosecuting attorney may apply to the special inquiry judge
for an order vacating or modifying the subpoena on the grounds that such is in
the public interest. Upon such application, the court may in its discretion
vacate the subpoena, extend its return date, attach reasonable conditions to
directions, or make such other qualification thereof as is appropriate.
(3) The proceedings to summon a person and compel him to testify or
provide evidence shall as far as possible be the same as proceedings to summon
witnesses and compel their attendance. Such persons shall receive only those
fees paid witnesses in district court criminal trials.
