If any witness shall fail to properly respond to a subpoena, the board may petition the district court in and for the county in which the proceeding is pending setting forth the issuance of the subpoena, its proper service and the basis upon which the board alleges that the witness failed to respond. The court shall enter an order directing the witness to appear before the court at a time and place fixed by the court, not less than five (5) days from the service of such order on the witness, to show cause why he has not attended and testified or produced the documentary evidence before the board. If it shall appear to the court that the subpoena was regularly issued by the board or a member and regularly served, the court shall thereupon enter an order that the witness appear before the board at the time and place fixed in the order to testify or produce the required documentary evidence, and upon failure to obey that order, the witness shall be dealt with for contempt of court.
