Section 15-13-8

Limitation on number of applications; appeals to Court of Criminal Appeals; procedure upon order of Court of Criminal Appeals admitting defendant to bail.

(a) When an application for bail is made to any circuit judge and is refused, no subsequent application can be made, but the evidence in such case may be preserved for review on application to the Court of Criminal Appeals.

(b) When an order is made by the Court of Criminal Appeals admitting a defendant to bail, the order must fix the amount of bail required and direct the same to be taken by the court to whom the primary application was made or by the sheriff of the county in which the defendant is confined. When such bail is ordered to be taken by a judge, the sheriff having the custody of the defendant must carry him before such judge for that purpose.
