In all cases not specially provided for, the supersedeas bond may be made payable to the state. Where it is provided that such bond shall be made payable to the opposite party, it shall not be an objection to the bond that it is not payable to the proper person, but such bond shall be valid and binding on the obligors, and may be proceeded on in all respects as if it were payable as directed by law.
