1. Code § 6-911, as amended by the act of 1953 (Ga. L. 1953, Nov.-Dee. Sess., pp. 440', 456), requires that: “Within 10 days 'after the bill of exceptions shall be signed and certified, the party plaintiff therein shall serve a copy thereof upon the opposite party or his attorney. . .”

2. Where there is no service of such writ of error within 10 days after certification by the trial court or waiver of such service by the defendant in error or his counsel, this court is without jurisdiction to consider such writ of error. See Cape v. American Security Ins. Co., 95 Ga. App. 604 (98 S. E. 2d 152), and citations.
