Ohio Rev. Code § 2505.10
Before a supersedeas bond shall operate to stay execution of a final order, judgment, or decree, its execution and the sufficiency of its sureties shall be approved by the court in which the final order, judgment, or decree was rendered or by the court to which the appeal is taken. In the case of an appeal of a final order, judgment, or decree of a court, the approval shall be obtained pursuant to the Rules of Appellate Procedure or in another applicable manner.
If a supersedeas bond is approved in connection with any appeal, the fact of approval shall be indorsed on the bond, and the bond shall be filed in the office of the clerk of the court in which the final order, judgment, or decree was rendered or, in the case of an administrative-related appeal, of the court to which the appeal is taken, for the appellee.
