After a defendant has been admitted to bail, the court in which the charge is pending may, upon good cause shown, increase or reduce the amount of bail. If the amount is increased, the court shall order the defendant to be committed to the actual custody of the sheriff until bail is posted in the increased amount. Any previous bail posted in the case shall be exonerated by the court. If the defendant applies for a reduction of the amount of bail, notice of the application shall be served upon the attorney for the state and the person posting bail within five (5) business days.
