Original Note:
This post conflates bond amounts for pre trial release in a criminal proceeding with appellate bonds in a civil proceeding. In civil cases, a bond in the full amount of the judgement is required to prevent collection of the judgement during an appeal. https://www.americanbar.org/groups/judicial/publications/appellate_issues/2019/summer/staying-judgment-with-appeal-bonds/
