Katie Phang also posted that Judge Kaplan has to approve the Supersedeas Bond in order to stay the execution of the judgement.
Also:
UPDATE: as there appears to be some confusion about what a Supersedeas Bond is, from the Cornell Law School Legal Information Institute…
https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/supersedeas
Supersedeas (also termed “writ of supersedeas”) is Latin for “you shall desist,” and it refers to a stay of the enforcement of a judgment pending appeal; a writ or bond that suspends a judgment creditor’s power to levy execution.
all of the links in that paragraph refer back to the Cornell LLI site and are informative.
