Rule 34. Petitions for rehearing.
     When, in appeals or special proceedings, it is ordered that remittitur, peremptory writ or judgment issue forthwith, no petition for rehearing will be entertained. In all other cases a petition for rehearing may be filed within 10 days after the decision of the supreme court has been rendered, unless the time is shortened or enlarged by order, and the adverse party shall have 7 days thereafter in which to serve and file objections thereto. Extensions of time will be granted only upon showing of unusual merit, and in no event in excess of 10 days. A petition for rehearing may be presented upon the following grounds and none other: That some fact, material to the decision, or some question decisive of the case submitted by counsel, was overlooked by the court, or that the decision is in conflict with an express statute or controlling decision to which the attention of the court was not directed. Oral argument in support of the petition will not be permitted. A signed original and 7 copies of petitions and objections thereto, shall be filed with the clerk.
