W.R.C.P.Ch.C. 83
Rules by Courts of Record; Judge’s Directives
(a) Uniform Rules.
(1) In General. The chancery court, with approval of the supreme court,
may adopt and amend uniform rules governing its practice. A uniform rule
must be consistent with--but not duplicate--Wyoming statutes and rules. A
uniform rule takes effect on the date specified by the supreme court and
remains in effect unless amended. Approved uniform rules shall be published in the Wyoming Court Rules volume.
(2) Requirement of Form. A uniform rule imposing a requirement of form
must not be enforced in a way that causes a party to lose any right because
of a nonwillful failure to comply.
(b) Procedure When There is No Controlling Law. A judge may regulate
practice in any manner consistent with state law, rules, and the uniform rules.
No sanction or other disadvantage may be imposed for noncompliance with any
requirement not in state law, state rules, or the uniform rules unless the
alleged violator has been furnished in the particular case with actual notice of
the requirement.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
