UCRCCC 5.08
SUPERSEDEAS
The perfecting of an appeal, whether on the record or by trial de novo, does not act as
supersedeas. In cases being appealed that involve a money judgment, the party against whom
money judgment was rendered may post with the court clerk of the court acting as the
appellate court a bond that is 125% of the money judgment, such bond to be approved by the
circuit clerk. The posting of this bond shall automatically act as a supersedeas solely on the
money judgment, but not any other part of the order or judgment. Upon application the court
may reduce the amount of the supersedeas bond. In appeals from lower authorities, when the
statute provides for automatic supersedeas, the statute shall govern. In all other cases the
court may grant a supersedeas upon proof of the party requesting the same, applying the same
standards as for a preliminary injunction. However, except in those cases in which the statute
provides for automatic supersedeas, no supersedeas will be granted on appeals from a denial,
revocation or suspension of a license to practice a profession or a trade. The court may grant
an expedited hearing, may alter the briefing schedules, and may require the record to be
expedited. In all cases in which a discretionary supersedeas is granted, the court may require
a bond sufficient to protect the interests of the other parties.
