Appeals to Supreme Court from judgment of circuit court - Requirement of security for costs; effect of appeal as to judgment of conviction.

If the appeal is taken by the state in cases instituted in its name by the Attorney General or a district attorney, no security for costs shall be required. In all other cases, security for costs shall be required as in appeals to the Supreme Court in civil actions, and such appeal shall not suspend the judgment of conviction.
