*351On Motion for Rehearing or to Transfer
PER CURIAM:
The opinion in this case was filed June 8, 1976. Motions for rehearing must be filed within 15 days after the opinion of the court shall be filed and applications for transfer to the Supreme Court of Missouri must also be filed within 15 days of the filing date. Rules 84.17 and 83.02, Y.A. M.R. Defendant’s pro se motion for rehearing or transfer “out of time” was received and filed by the clerk of this court on June 28, 1976, well beyond the prescribed time. The 15-day limitation for filing defendant’s motion is cast in mandatory language, and neither counsel nor this court is at liberty to ignore or wink at that limitation. The order of this court should be and is that defendant’s purported motion for rehearing or to transfer be stricken. Hood v. M. F. A.
