Any
defendant convicted under this article shall have the right of appeal to the
superior court. The provisions of Code Sections 5-3-29 and 5-3-30 shall not
apply to appeals under this Code section. Otherwise, the appeal shall be entered
as appeals are entered from the probate court to the superior court, provided
that the defendant shall be entitled to bail and shall be released from custody
upon giving the bond as is provided for appearances in criminal cases in the
courts of this state. Such bond shall have the same conditions as appearance
bonds in criminal cases. The appeal to the superior court shall not be a de novo
investigation before a jury but shall be on the record of the hearing as
certified by the judge of that court who presided at the hearing below.
