On satisfactory proof of title to the property, the magistrate before whom the information is laid, or who examines the charge against the person accused of stealing or embezzling the property, may order it to be delivered to the owner on his or her paying the reasonable and necessary expenses incurred in its preservation, to be certified by the magistrate. The order entitles the owner to demand and receive the property. Such property shall be made available to the owner within twenty (20) days of the issuance of the order. The court, however, may keep the property as evidence or on the issuance of an order, require the owner to present such property at trial.
