(b) If the defendant is surrendered by sureties under section 4 of this chapter, the judgment shall commence to run from the time of the surrender, and the defendant shall be immediately confined in the institution to which the defendant was committed by the original sentence.
(c) If a defendant is admitted to bail under this chapter after the defendant has commenced to serve the sentence, and the appeal is dismissed or the judgment from which the appeal was taken is affirmed, the defendant shall receive accrued time and good time credit, if applicable, on the sentence for the time the defendant served before being admitted to bail.
