Chapter 5 of the Georgia Appellate Handbook specifically addresses the Georgia supersedeas bond<\/strong> requirements for appellants. Pursuant to the Handbook<\/a>, “A supersedeas bond is not automatically required in cases in which a notice of appeal has\u00a0been filed and the appropriate costs paid\u00a0however upon motion by the appellee, made before or after the appeal is docketed in the appellate court, the trial court must require posting of a supersedeas bond. Generally, a supersedeas bond should be in\u00a0an amount suffi cient to satisfy: (i) the judgment in full; (ii) costs; (iii) interest; and (iv) damages for\u00a0delay, if the appeal is found to be frivolous.\u00a0In those cases where the judgment is for the recovery of\u00a0money “not otherwise secured,\u201d the Georgia supersedes bond must be written\u00a0in an amount sufficient to satisfy:\u00a0(i) the whole amount of the judgment remaining unsatisfied; (ii) costs on the appeal; (iii) interest;\u00a0and (iv) damages for delay, unless the court finds cause that a lesser amount is appropriate. In those\u00a0cases where the judgment determines the disposition of property such as in real estate\u00a0actions, trover, and actions to foreclose mortgages the supersedeas bond must be written in an amount that will secure only: (i) the use and detention of the property; (ii) the costs of the action; (iii) costs\u00a0of appeal; (iv) interest; and (v) damages for delay.\u00a0There is an exception to the formula for the bond penalty. Pursuant to rule, regardless of the legal theory asserted, the type of damages awarded, and \u00a0the number of parties, the total supersedeas bond penalty required of all\u00a0appellants collectively may not exceed $25 million regardless of the value of the judgment.” While an appellant is not obligated to provide a supersedeas bond, failure to do so results in the appellant losing the stay on collection protection of the supersedeas.<\/p>\n

Supersedeas\u00a0bonds can be large even considering the Georgia supersedeas bond statutory cap. The appeal jurisdiction\u2019s code of civil procedure \u00a0or appellate handbook often provides a formula for determining the amount of the supesedeas\u00a0bond. For example, appellate procedure may obligate an\u00a0appellant to post a\u00a0supersedeas bond equal to 150% of the judgment amount. That is not currently the practice for Georgia appeals. In order to obtain a supersedeas bond a\u00a0surety company<\/a> will require a complete surety bond application<\/a>, a copy of the pertinent court documents and that the appellant identify his or her legal counsel. These three basic requirements are sufficient to receive a premium quote (bond cost).<\/p>\n
