Wyo. R. Comm'n Jud. Conduct & Ethics 20

(a) Respondent’s objection to report and recommendation. — Respondent

may file objections to the recommendation of the Commission for censure,

removal or retirement, including for costs and fees, within 30 days after the

filing with the clerk of the Wyoming Supreme Court of a certified copy of the

recommendation. The objection shall be based on the record and shall comply

with W.R.A.P. 7.01 through 7.03 except that instead of the statement of issues

required by 7.01(d), the respondent shall set forth the specific exceptions to the

recommendation. The respondent shall file with the clerk of the Wyoming

Supreme Court the original and six copies of the objection, a copy of which

shall be served on disciplinary counsel and the Commission. Within 20 days

after service on the Commission, disciplinary counsel shall file the original and

six copies of petitioner’s response and shall serve a copy on respondent. Within

15 days after service of such response, the respondent may file the original and

six copies of a reply, of which a copy shall be served on disciplinary counsel and

the Commission.

(b) Calendaring. — If respondent files an objection to the Commission’s

report and recommendation, the Court shall calendar the matter as it may

deem appropriate and shall thereafter enter an order.

(c) Failure to file an objection. — Failure to file a response to the recommendation within the time provided may be deemed as consent to a determination

on the merits based upon the record filed by the Commission.

(d) Applicable rules. — The Wyoming Rules of Appellate Procedure shall

apply to proceedings in the Wyoming Supreme Court for review of a recommendation of the Commission, except where express provision is made to the

contrary or where the application of a particular rule would be clearly

impracticable, inappropriate or inconsistent.

(e) Special supreme court. — Upon the occurrence of a circumstance neces-

sitating the appointment of a special supreme court, the Wyoming Supreme

Court will designate five district judges who are not members of the Commission to act in the place of the supreme court for the limited purposes

contemplated by Wyo. Const. art. 5, § 6(e)(iv). Filings shall be made with the

clerk of the court.

(f) Publication of Orders. — The clerk of the court shall release for

publication orders imposing public discipline. Orders of suspension or removal

shall be transmitted to all courts in the state. All orders of public discipline

shall be published in the Pacific Reporter and are a permanent record of the

Court.
