Wyo. R. Prac. & P. 1

As amended through April 30, 2019

Rule 1 - Redacted Filings [Effective until June 1, 2018]

For any documents filed after January 1, 2011, unless otherwise ordered by the court, the parties shall refrain from including, or shall redact, where inclusion is necessary, the following four personal data identifiers from their pleadings, including exhibits thereto:

(a) Social Security Numbers. If an individual's social security number must be included, only the last 4 digits of that number should be used.

(b) Names of Minor Children. If the involvement of a minor child must be mentioned, only the initials of that child should be used. This does not include cases where the minor is a party to the case, unless the statutes otherwise require.

(c) Dates of Birth. If an individual's date of birth must be included, only the year of birth should be used.

(d) Financial Account Numbers. If a financial account number is relevant, only the last 4 digits of such numbers should be used.

The responsibility for redacting these personal data identifiers rests solely with counsel and the persons filing the documents with the court. The Clerk will not review papers for compliance with these rules.
