Copy with citation
Copy as parenthetical citation

If an order has been entered by the county court creating or establishing a district, and giving it a name or designation, the appeal bonds, when the district or petitioners for the bonds are appellants, may be made by the district in such name, to be signed by some one (1) of the petitioners nominated for that purpose by the county court, it being declared the duty of the county court to so nominate some of the petitioners for this purpose; and on any appeal from the circuit court to an appellate court, the name of the district, if it has been ordered established by the county court, may in like manner be signed to any appeal bond, the circuit court nominating the petitioner to so sign it. Nothing in this chapter is to be construed as excusing the giving of good security on any such bonds for appeal, and the district shall be liable for any damages and costs adjudged against it on any appeal, as well as the sureties on the bonds; and the oath provided by law for poor persons shall not be allowed in lieu of any of the bonds.
