A defendant arrested may, at any time before judgment, apply on a motion to the court or a judge of the court in which the action is pending to vacate the order for arrest or to reduce the amount of bail. If upon the hearing of the motion it appears that there was not sufficient cause for the arrest, the order shall be vacated; or if it appears that the bail was fixed too high, the amount shall be reduced.
