Action for seduction by appellant against appellee. There was a trial by jury and a verdict against appellant, on which judgment was rendered, from which this appeal. The error assigned is the action of the court in overruling appellant's motion for a new trial, under which appellant presents that there was error in giving instruction No. 9 tendered by appellee. This instruction calls special attention to appellant as a witness, and to parts of her evidence in such a way as that she may have been discredited and prejudiced thereby. Appellant has fully briefed the question *Page 169 and makes, in the opinion of this court, a prima facie showing that reversible error was committed. Appellee has failed to file any brief and the court, in its discretion, will treat such failure to file a brief, thereby attempting to aid the court in learning whether or not reversible error in fact was committed, as a confession of error.
