Sec. 1. (a) When a criminal action is pending against a defendant and the defendant is in the custody of any law enforcement officer, the court may order the law enforcement officer to produce the defendant before the court for prosecution. If the defendant is at liberty within the state as a result of an order releasing him on his own recognizance or on bail, the court may cause the defendant or his attorney to be notified to appear at a designated time.
