Syllabus

<p>APPEAL — BOND CONDITIONED BOB. COSTS AND SUPERSEDEAS— SUFFICIENCY.</p> <p>A bond for $200 conditioned both as a stay bond and a cost bond on appeal is insufficient to confer jurisdiction on the supreme court, under Laws 1893, p. 122, §§ 6, 7 (Bal. Code, §§ 6505, 6506), which provide that an appeal bond in the penalty of $200, conditioned for the payment of costs and damages, must be given; and, in case a stay of proceedings is sought, the bond, where the appeal is from a final judgment for the recovery of money, shall be in a penalty double the amount of the damages and costs recovered in such judgment, and in other cases shall be in such penalty, not less than two hundred dollars, as a judge of the superior court shall prescribe.</p>
