If any person fails or refuses to file any statement, report, documentary material or physical evidence, or obey any investigative subpoena or demand issued by the attorney general and director, under R.S. 51:1411 or R.S. 51:1412, except as permitted by a protective order issued by an appropriate court, the attorney general and director may apply to the district court having civil jurisdiction in the parish where the person served with the demand or subpoena resides or has his principal place of business, for a rule to show cause why an order compelling compliance should not be issued. Any disobedience of an order compelling compliance under this section by any courts shall be punished as a contempt of court.
