    § 38. Power of subpoena. 1. The superintendent shall have power at all
  times,  either  personally  or by his deputies, including special deputy
  superintendents, or examiners, to subpoena witnesses,  to  compel  their
  attendance,  to administer an oath, to examine any person under oath and
  to require  the  production  of  any  relevant  books  or  papers.  Such
  examination  may  be  conducted  on  any  subject relating to the duties
  imposed upon, or the powers vested  in,  the  superintendent  under  the
  provisions of this chapter. Any corporation, association, partnership or
  individual  which  fails  to  obey  the  command  of  a subpoena without
  reasonable excuse or refuses, without reasonable cause, to be  sworn  or
  to  be  examined  or  to answer a question or to produce a book or paper
  when ordered so to do by the officer duly conducting  such  inquiry,  or
  fails  to  perform  any act required hereunder to be performed, shall be
  guilty of a misdemeanor and shall also be  subject  to  the  compulsions
  provided  by the civil practice law and rules. Any officer participating
  in such inquiry and any person examined as a witness upon  such  inquiry
  who  shall disclose to any person other than the superintendent the name
  of any witness examined or any  other  information  obtained  upon  such
  inquiry,  except as directed by the superintendent, shall be guilty of a
  misdemeanor.
    2. In any such investigation before the superintendent or  before  his
  deputy  or  any  other  officer  duly  designated by him to conduct such
  investigation, the superintendent or such deputy or officer  may  confer
  immunity  in  accordance  with  the  provisions  of section 50.20 of the
  criminal procedure law.
