Surrender of principal in open court.

When the defendant is before the court pertaining to the case(s), the sureties of such bail may surrender the defendant in court by notifying the judge that it is their desire to surrender the defendant. The judge shall then order the sheriff, or other officer who has the duty of taking defendants into custody after conviction, to take custody of the defendant. In such event, the surety is not required to produce a bondsman's warrant or certified copy of bond to the court.
