Bail may be given by the defendant on his arrest under section 2713.07 of the Revised Code, or afterward, before judgment. It shall be done by causing sufficient bail to execute a bond to the plaintiff, in the presence of the sheriff, to the effect that, if judgment is rendered in the action against the defendant, such bail will be amenable to the process of the court thereon. The bond, when accepted, shall be returned to the clerk's office, and the defendant shall be discharged.
