12963.2
. Upon the filing of a complaint under Section 12960, 12961,
or 12980:
(a) The department may issue and serve written interrogatories on
the same individuals and organizations and in the same manner as
subpoenas may be issued and served under Section 12963.1. Any
corporation, partnership, association, public entity, or other
organization to which interrogatories are issued has the obligation
of designating one or more officers, directors, managing agents, or
other individuals to answer the interrogatories on the organization's
behalf.
(b) Within 30 days after the service of the interrogatories, or
such longer time as the department may permit, the recipient of the
interrogatories shall serve on the department written answers either
responding fully or stating any objection to each interrogatory
separately. The answers shall be made under oath and shall be signed
by each individual making them, and the answers shall identify which
individual has responded to each interrogatory.
(c) When in order to answer an interrogatory it is necessary to
make a compilation, abstract, audit, or summary of the business
records of the recipient of the interrogatory and such a compilation,
abstract, audit, or summary does not exist or is not in the
possession or under the control of the recipient, it shall be a
sufficient answer to the interrogatory to so state and to specify the
records from which the answer may be derived or ascertained and to
afford the department reasonable opportunity to inspect and copy or
make compilations, abstracts, or summaries from such records.
