Whether or not a prisoner in custody can be let out on an appeal bond depends on the appeal court. In this state, it is quite rare but it has happened. It probably happens when one judge looks through the appeal brief and decides that the case will be overturned on appeal. That has happened in every instance so far. An exception might occur. Since many appeals simply claim that the evidence did not support some of the charges, the verdict stands. The sentence will be corrected. No appeal bond would be issued.

Do you have to pay bail bond after you are sentenced?

A bail bond is an insurance policy purchased to guarantee the appearance of a defendant in court. Once the defendant has been sentenced, the trial is over and any bail bonds are generally "exonerated" by the court, meaning that the insurance company is no longer responsible for guaranteeing the defendant's appearance. The only reason to get a bail bond after sentencing would be if the case was on appeal, and the defendant was trying to stay out of jail while the appeal is pending. That said, if you still owe the bail bondsman money, by all means YES! You need to pay the bondsman's fee (called the premium).
