Bill > HB0055

This bill increases various court-related fees across multiple Wyoming statutes, specifically raising the court automation fee from $40 to $50 in several different types of legal proceedings, including probate matters, supreme court filings, district court civil actions, municipal court cases, circuit court filings, chancery court filings, and criminal cases (both felonies and misdemeanors). The court automation fee is deposited into the judicial systems automation account, which helps support technological improvements in the court system. Additionally, the bill increases some other court-related fees, such as original filing fees for civil actions (from $160 to $170) and fees for transcripts and docketing (from $100 to $110). The bill will apply to all cases and appeals initially filed on or after July 1, 2025, and becomes effective on that same date. These fee increases are designed to help support ongoing technology upgrades and improvements in Wyoming's judicial system, ensuring that courts can maintain and enhance their technological infrastructure.
