§ 23A-43-5. (Rule 46(b)) Conditions of release and bond continued unless ordered increased--Statement of reasons for adding conditions.

A defendant released before trial shall continue on release until a plea or verdict of guilty has been entered, under the same terms and conditions as were previously imposed unless the committing magistrate or court determines that other terms and conditions or termination of his release are necessary to insure the orderly and expeditious progress of the trial. After conviction but prior to the entry of judgment, the defendant may be released pursuant to § 23A-43-16. If a person has been arrested on a complaint and is indicted before an information has been filed on the complaint, any bond posted from the original arrest shall continue and be the bond for the same offense, unless otherwise ordered by the court. If the terms and conditions are increased in severity or if the termination of release is ordered, the committing magistrate or court shall state the reasons therefor on the record.
