Unless otherwise provided in this chapter, any interested person aggrieved by any rule, regulation or order of the commissioner and/or the board, as applicable, shall have the right, regardless of the amount involved, to appeal to the Circuit Court of the First Judicial District of Hinds County. However, if the appellant is an applicant for a charter, the appeal shall be taken to the circuit court of the county in which the proposed institution is domiciled; or if the appellant is seeking to establish a branch office, the appeal shall be taken to the circuit court of the county in which the proposed branch is located. Such appeal shall be taken and perfected as hereinafter provided, within thirty (30) days from the date of such final rule, regulation or order. The circuit court may affirm such rule, regulation or order, or remand for further proceedings as justice may require. All such appeals shall be taken and perfected, heard either in termtime or in vacation, and shall be heard and disposed of promptly by the court as a preference cause. In perfecting any appeal provided by this section, the provisions of law respecting notice to the reporter and the allowance of bills of exception, now or hereafter in force, and those provisions respecting appeals from the circuit court to supreme court shall be applicable. However, the reporter shall transcribe his notes and file the transcript of the record with the commissioner or board within thirty (30) days after approval of the appeal bond. Upon the filing with the commissioner or board of a petition for appeal to the circuit court, it shall be the duty of the commissioner or board, within sixty (60) days after approval of the appeal bond to file with the clerk of the circuit court to which the appeal is taken a copy of the petition for appeal, the rule, regulation or order appealed from, and the original and one (1) copy of the transcript of the record of proceedings in evidence before the commissioner or board. After the filing of such petition, the appeal shall be perfected by filing of bond in the sum of Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) with two (2) sufficient sureties, or with a surety company qualified to do business in Mississippi as the surety, conditioned to pay the cost of such appeal. Such bond shall be approved by the commissioner or by the clerk of the court to which such appeal is taken. The perfection of an appeal shall not stay or suspend the operation of any rule, regulation or order of the commissioner or board, but the judge of such circuit court may award a writ of supersedeas to any rule, regulation or order of the commissioner or board after five (5) days' notice to the commissioner or board. Any order or judgment staying the operation of any rule, regulation or order of the commissioner or board shall contain a specific finding, based upon evidence submitted to the circuit judge and identified by reference thereto, that irreparable damage would result t o the appellant if he is denied relief. Such stay shall not become effective until a supersedeas bond shall have been executed and filed with and approved by the clerk of the court payable to the state. The bond shall be in an amount fixed by the circuit judge and conditioned as said circuit judge may direct.
