240 So. 2d 606 (1970) Mrs. Vera E. JACKSON v. Mrs. J.P. WALKER, Sheriff & Tax Collector. No. 45938. Supreme Court of Mississippi. October 26, 1970. Sam P. Cooper, Jr., Picayune, for appellant. Entry of Appearance by L. Jack Stewart, Picayune, but no brief of appellee filed. GILLESPIE, Presiding Justice. The appellant filed a brief and an assignment of error. No brief was filed by the appellee. The case was submitted without argument. In United States F. & G. Co. v. State for Use and Benefit of Tompkins, 204 So. 2d 852 (Miss. 1967), this Court stated: Since the appellant's brief in the case at bar makes out an apparent case of error, we do not regard it our obligation to look to the record to find a way to avoid the force of the appellant's argument. Reversed. Judgment rendered for the appellant. RODGERS, JONES, SMITH and ROBERTSON, JJ., concur.
