A. 
Notice to Appear. If any person is arrested for any violation and such person is not immediately taken before a magistrate, the arresting officer, pursuant to the provisions of Penal Code Section 853.6, shall prepare, in duplicate, a written notice to appear in court. Such written notice shall contain the name and address of such person and the offense charged and shall set forth the time when and place where such person shall appear in court. The time set forth in the notice to appear shall be at least fourteen days after such arrest. The place set forth in the notice to appear shall be the court of the magistrate before whom the person would be taken if the requirement of taking an arrested person before a magistrate were complied with, or shall be an officer authorized by such court to receive a deposit of bail.
B. 
Bail. The arresting officer shall deliver one copy of the notice to appear to the arrested person, and the arrested person, in order to secure release, shall give his or her written promise to appear in court by signing the duplicate notice, which shall be retained by the officer. Thereupon, the arresting officer shall forthwith release the person arrested from custody. The officer shall, as soon as practicable, file the duplicate notice with the magistrate specified therein. Thereupon, the magistrate shall fix the amount of bail which, in his or her judgment, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Penal Code of the state, will be reasonable and sufficient for the appearance of the defendant, and shall endorse upon the notice a statement signed by the magistrate in the form set forth in the applicable section of said Penal Code. The defendant may, prior to the date upon which he or she promised to appear in court, deposit with the magistrate the amount of bail thus set. Thereafter, at the time when the case is called for arraignment before a magistrate, if the defendant does not appear, either in person or by counsel, the magistrate may declare the bail forfeited and may, in his or her discretion, order that no further proceedings shall be had in such case. Upon the making of such order that no further proceedings be had, all sums deposited as bail shall forthwith be paid into the city treasury for disposition pursuant to the applicable provisions of said Penal Code. No warrant shall issue on such charge for the arrest of a person who has given such written promise to appear in court unless and until he or she has violated such promise or has failed to deposit bail, to appear for arraignment, trial or judgment, or to comply with the terms and provisions of the judgment as required by law.
C. 
Violations—Warrants for Arrest. Any person willfully violating his or her written promise to appear in court shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, regardless of the disposition of the charge upon which he or she was originally arrested. Whenever a person signs a written promise to appear at the time and place set forth therein and has not posted bail as provided in said Penal Code, the magistrate shall issue and have delivered for execution a warrant for his or her arrest within twenty days after the delivery of such written promise to appear by the officer to a magistrate having jurisdiction over the offense. When such person violates his or her promise to appear before the officer authorized to receive bail, other than a magistrate, the officer shall immediately deliver to the magistrate having jurisdiction over the offense charged the written promise to appear and the complaint, if any, filed by the arresting officer.
