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.

Just because a motion has been filed doesn't mean that the Clerk does ANYTHING. The motion has to be reviewed and ruled upon by the judge, which, in itself may take some time. Then the action doesn't become effective unless, and until, the judge signs the order.Supersedeas is a difficult concept to grasp thus, a definition of a Supersedeas Bond follows:Supersedeas is a Latin term meaning "you shall desist."
