How can someone file for a Supersedeas Bond when the judgment in the case was final?

The purpose of the bond is to maintain the status quo at the time of finial judgment. If a debtor can prove that the prevailing party will not be prejudiced by waiting to collect their judgment, then execution on that judgment can be stayed during the appeal. Although the judgment is final, the appellate court could find some error in the district court's actions and reverse that judgment. The bond allows the debtor to avoid the hardship of having their property liened and wages garnished if they can prove they will pay if the appellate court upholds the judgment.

If you are the 'creditor' of judgment and you sign for a third party to collect, then YES, your right to collect is given up. Because once that is signed you just signed over your judgment over to the third party, and it is considered THEIR judgment now. BUT you will still get your money judgment from the third party.
