¶1OPINION ON MOTION FOR REHEARING
¶2In our Per Curiam opinion of December 30, 1982, this Court ordered attorneys Will Gray and Hector Azios to file a motion for rehearing in this cause within fifteen days of the opinion. It was further ordered that the motion for rehearing be accompanied by a brief in support of the motion. Accordingly, appellant’s motion for rehearing was due in this Court on or before January 14, 1983. No motion for rehearing was timely filed. No motion for extension of time to file the motion for rehearing was filed.
¶3On January 17, 1983, this Court received appellant’s motion for rehearing with accompanying brief. Pursuant to Rules 208 and 209, Texas Criminal Appellate Rules, the final ruling of this Court was the 16th day after the date of the delivery of the court’s opinion, or January 15,1983. Because the motion for rehearing was filed late, and because no motion for extension of time to file the motion for rehearing was timely filed, this Court is now without jurisdiction to consider the motion for rehearing.
¶4The motion for rehearing is dismissed.

¶70The return receipt from that mailing shows that Mr. Azios received the order on September 10, 1982. September 24, 1982, came and passed with no brief being filed. No motion for extension of time was filed.
¶71Hector Azios is in violation of the above order of September 9, 1982.
¶72It is therefore ordered that Hector Azios shall appear in person in the courtroom of this Court at 9 o’clock a.m. on Wednesday, January 19,1983, to show cause why he should not be held in contempt of this Court.
¶73It is further ordered that the Clerk of this Court cause a certified copy of this order to be served on Hector Azios by certified mail, return receipt requested, with delivery restricted to addressee only or give other personal notice to Hector Azios of this Order with proof of delivery.
