W.R.A.P. 13.01
Generally
(a) All applications to the Supreme Court for interlocutory or extraordinary
relief from orders of the chancery court and district courts, including such
applications as are established by statute (e.g., Wyo. Stat. Ann. §§ 5-2-119 and
7-14-107), may be made as petitions for a writ of review. Granting of a petition
is within the discretion of the Supreme Court.
(b) All applications to a district court for interlocutory or extraordinary
relief from orders of administrative agencies and the municipal and circuit
courts, including such applications as are established by statute, may be made
as petitions for a writ of review. Granting of a petition is within the discretion
of the district court.
(c) The petitioner for a writ of review shall specifically state the nature of
review desired and the relief sought.
(d) Writs of habeas corpus, mandamus, prohibition, quo warranto or any
prerogative writ shall be treated as a writ of review under these rules. In any
petition made to the Supreme Court for a writ to be issued in the exercise of its
original jurisdiction and for which an application might have been lawfully
made to some other court, the petition shall set forth the circumstances why,
in the opinion of the petitioner, the writ should issue originally from the
Supreme Court and not from such other court. The petition shall also name the
real party or parties in interest, or whose interest would be directly affected by
the proceedings.
