The thrust of plaintiffs motion to dismiss the devolutive appeal is two-fold: 1) that the motion for appeal and the appeal bond were untimely filed; and, 2) that the apparent signature of the appellant, Joan Vitrano, on the appeal bond is not her signature and the appeal bond is therefore invalid. The motion to dismiss is denied.
On October 22, 1976, a default judgment was rendered against the defendant, Joan Vitrano. No evidence is contained in the record that personal service of process was effected on defendant.1 Further, the record does not contain a certificate from the clerk showing the date on which notice of the signing of the judgment was mailed to defendant Joan Vitrano. Indeed, the record does not disclose that any notice of judgment was sent to the defendant. The judgment has a notation on it which reads as follows:
“Copy sent to: Charles Lagarde, Jr and Steve Griffith. Dated October 22, 1976”
Neither Lagarde nor Griffith represents Joan Vitrano. Failure to send a notice of judgment as required in the instant case is in derogation of LSA-C.C.P. art. 1913.2 Un*304der the circumstances, the time for the filing of a motion for a new trial3 and for the filing of a devolutive appeal4 has not commenced to run. Accordingly, a motion for appeal filed on January 17, 1977, and an appeal bond filed on January 20, 1977, have not been untimely filed.
The attack in this court on the validity of the bond is also without merit. LSA-C.C.P. art. 5125 provides that no appeal shall be dismissed on the ground that the bond furnished is insufficient or invalid unless the party who furnished the bond is afforded an opportunity to furnish a new or supplemental bond as provided for in LSA-C.C.P. art. 5124. The attack on the invalidity of the appeal bond must be made in the trial court. LSA-C.C.P. arts. 2088, 5123, and 5124. The motion to dismiss the appeal is denied.
MOTION DENIED.
. The record fails to disclose any service of process on the defendant. The supplemental and amended petition making Joan Vitrano a party defendant contains a certificate of the attorney for plaintiff that the supplemental petition was mailed to Steven F. Griffith, Sr., attorney. However, Griffith represents a co-defendant, Gregory Vitrano, but does not represent defendant, Joan Vitrano, the appellant herein.
. LSA-C.C.P. art. 1913 reads as follows:

“If, at the conclusion of a trial a case is not taken under advisement but the court does not sign a judgment at the time, a party may make a request of record for notice of the date when the judgment was signed; and when such a request is made, the clerk shall mail such notice to the party requesting it or to his counsel of record.
