The text of 49:305(d), 916(a), and 1017(a) is omitted as unnecessary in view of the restatement. The words "not obeying" are substituted for "shall neglect or refuse . . . or to answer any lawful inquiry" to eliminate surplus words. The word "appear" is substituted for "attend" for clarity. The words "if in his power to do so" and "lawful" are omitted as surplus. The word "records" is substituted for "books, papers, or documents" for consistency. The words "guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction thereof" are omitted as unnecessary because of section 1 of title 18, and for consistency.
