Terms Used In Wisconsin Statutes 818.19
- Affidavit: A written statement of facts confirmed by the oath of the party making it, before a notary or officer having authority to administer oaths.
- Bail: Security given for the release of a criminal defendant or witness from legal custody (usually in the form of money) to secure his/her appearance on the day and time appointed.
- Plaintiff: The person who files the complaint in a civil lawsuit.
If the judge find the bail sufficient, the judge shall annex the examination to the bond, endorse the judge’s allowance thereon and file them with the court. In such case, if the sureties annexed to their bond, at the time of its delivery to the sheriff, their affidavit showing sufficient qualifications as bail, according to s. 818.17, the judge may, by order, require the costs of the justification before the judge, including fees to the sureties as witnesses, to be forthwith paid by the plaintiff.
