Rule 1733. Requirements for Supersedeas on Agreement or Application.

 (a)  General rule.—An appeal from an order which is not subject to Rule 1731 (automatic supersedeas of orders for the payment of money), shall, unless otherwise prescribed in or ordered pursuant to this chapter, operate as a supersedeas only upon the filing with the clerk of the court below of appropriate security as prescribed in this rule. Either court may, upon its own motion or applica-tion of any party in interest, impose such terms and conditions as it deems just and will maintain the res or status quo pending final judgment or will facilitate the performance of the order if sustained.

 (b)  Tangible property.—When the order determines the disposition of the property in controversy as in real actions, replevin, and actions to foreclose mortgages or when such property is in the custody of the sheriff, or when the proceeds of such property or appropriate security for its value is in the possession, custody or control of the court, the amount of the additional security shall be fixed by agreement of the parties, or by the court, at such sums only as will secure any damages for the use and detention of the property, interest, the costs of the matter and costs on appeal.

 (c)  Other cases.—In all other cases the security shall be in such amount as the lower court in the first instance or the appellate court or a judge thereof shall deem just and proper.

 (d)  Public Officer.—Where the effect of an order is to remove a public officer from office a supersedeas of the order shall not reinstate the officer unless the order of supersedeas shall expressly so provide.

   Official Note

   The court is granted wide discretion under this rule as to the terms and conditions to be imposed and it may require (1) the execution and deposit of a deed where the order appealed from directs the execution of the conveyance or other instrument, (2) the delivery of personal property for safe keeping pending appeal where the order appealed from directs the assignment or delivery of such property, or (3) other terms required in the interest of justice.
