- Appellate: About appeals; an appellate court has the power to review the judgement of another lower court or tribunal.
- Defendant: In a civil suit, the person complained against; in a criminal case, the person accused of the crime.
- State: when applied to any of the United States, includes the District of Columbia and the territories, and the words "United States" includes such district and territories. See Missouri Laws 1.020
- Writ: A formal written command, issued from the court, requiring the performance of a specific act.
Where an appeal or writ of error is prosecuted from a judgment in case of misdemeanor, or in case the appeal is taken by the state, the recognizance shall be conditioned that the defendant shall appear in the court in which the judgment shall have been rendered at such time and place as the appellate court shall direct, and that he will render himself in execution, and obey any order or judgment which shall be made in the premises.
