(2) APPROVED UNREGISTERED BONDS ARE THOSE BEARS BONDS APPROVED BY THE INSURANCE COMMISSIONER AS SUFFICIENT SECURITY FOR A BAIL BOND IN CONNECTION WITH JUDICIAL PROCEEDING. (3) A PROFESSIONAL BONDSMAN MAY EXECUTE A " RECOGNIZANCE " BOND AS THAT WORD IS USED IN 59 Ohio St. 1971 1306 [59-1306](B). A RECOGNIZANCE IS A BOND IN THE STRICT SENSE OF THE WORD, AND WE VIEW SAME AS SUCH WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF THIS ACT.
