When such question is reserved, in case of a misdemeanor, and it shall be made known to the court that the defendant desires to take an appeal to the appropriate appellate court, judgment must be entered on the conviction, but the execution thereof must be stayed pending the appeal. In such case, the defendant may give bail, with sufficient sureties, conditioned that he will appear and abide the judgment; failing to give such bail, he must be committed to jail, but may give such bail at any time pending the appeal.
