Establishes procedures for investigative demands in consumer protection cases.
The bill amends the 1976 PA 331 to establish procedures for investigative demands in consumer protection cases. It allows the attorney general or a prosecuting attorney to issue written demands for testimony, answers, documentary material, or tangible objects relevant to an investigation. The demand must specify the violation being investigated, a summary of rights, and a return date. A person subject to a demand may petition for a protective order to modify or set aside the demand. Failure to comply with a demand can result in a civil fine of up to $10,000.
