Opinion text

UDALL, Vice Chief Justice. This is an appeal by the wife from an order of the trial court made subsequent to a decree of divorce. The order transferred the “case * * * to Maricopa County Temporary Child Care” for the purpose of placing the minor child of the parties with adoptive parents. Appellee has not favored us with a brief and this case has been submitted for decision under Rule 7(a), Rules of the Supreme Court, 17 A.R.S. We have recently held that: “ * * * where debatable issues were raised by the appeal, we will assume failure to file an answering brief is a confession on the part of the appellees of reversible error.” Nelson v. Nelson, 91 Ariz. 215, 217 , 370 P.2d 952, 953 . See also Tom v. Baca, 93 Ariz. 96 , 378 P.2d 912 . Reversed. BERNSTEIN, C. J., and STRUCK-MEYER, J, concur.
