Indiana Code Title 35. Criminal Law and Procedure § 35-33-8.5-4

Sec. 4. (a) One (1) surety on every such recognizance must be a resident freeholder of the county in which the prosecution is pending, and the surety or sureties must be worth at least double the sum to be secured and must have property in this state liable to execution equal to the sum to be secured, and when two (2) or more sureties are offered to the same recognizance, they must have in the aggregate the qualifications prescribed in this section. Whenever by the laws of this state a surety company is authorized to become surety on recognizance bonds, such surety company may be accepted as sufficient surety on any such bond.

(b) The recognizance shall be in form substantially as provided in IC 27-10-2-10, conditioned for judgment on ten (10) days notice to the surety. No pleadings shall be necessary and no change of judge or change of venue shall be granted. The obligor may except to the ruling of the court and appeal to the court of appeals as in civil cases without moving for a new trial.
