When the accused is brought before the Mayor under § 35.22, he or she shall be heard in his or her defense. If it is necessary for just cause to adjourn the hearing, the Mayor may order such adjournment and direct the officer having custody of the accused to detain him or her in the county jail or other secure and convenient place until such cause of delay is removed, unless a recognizance in a sum fixed by the Mayor, not to exceed $500, with sufficient surety, is given by the accused, but such delay shall not exceed two days.
