Section 419
SEC. 419. Exoneration of bail. — At any time before the issuance of execution, the sureties may surrender the defendant to the officer of the court, who shall thereafter retain him in custody, until he is otherwise discharged by law; and for that purpose the sureties may themselves arrest, or, by written authority indorsed on a certified copy of the obligation, may empower the officer of the court to arrest the defendant. If the bail do not surrender the defendant or cause him to be surrendered before the issuing of execution on the judgment, they shall be finally charged on their obligation and bound to pay upon demand the amount of the judgment, which may be collected from them after notice and summary hearing in the same action, except in the cases hereinafter provided.
