If it appears that the prisoner was remanded for an offense adjudged not bailable, the prisoner shall forthwith be remanded without further proceedings. (b) It shall not be lawful for any court or judge, on a second writ of habeas corpus, to discharge the prisoner, if he or she is clearly and specifically charged in the order remanding him or her or in the warrant of commitment, with a criminal offense.
