Appeal from judgment of a magistrate does not stay execution if the judgment is for recovery of specific property.

Appeal from judgment of a magistrate does stay execution if the judgment is for money damages. This section shall not require any undertaking of appellants in summary ejectment actions other than those imposed by Chapter 42 of the General Statutes.
