Court documents show Earls' Jr.'s bond was reduced to $90,000 for murder and aggravated assault counts at Monday's hearing.
The 2022 incident unfolded when Earls was robbed at gunpoint at the Chase Bank at the intersection of Winkler and Woodridge, according to police.
Authorities said that he fired multiple shots into the pickup truck that Alvarez's family was traveling by the bank while firing shots towards the thief, killing the girl.
In July 2022, Earls was released after a grand jury declined to indict him for an aggravated assault charge.
His next court hearing is on July 24.
