§ 3071. Powers and duties of commissioner
A commissioner may summon the trustee to appear before him or her and make disclosure;
and if, after reasonable notice from the commissioner, he or she does not appear,
or, appearing, does not make disclosure, the commissioner shall report the fact to
the court. Thereupon, unless cause is shown to the contrary, the court shall render
judgment as in case of default against the trustee. When the trustee appears before
the commissioner and does not answer the interrogatories proposed by the plaintiff
or commissioner, such failure to answer, relative to the particular matter to which
such answer is required, shall be taken against him or her.
