AN ACT relating to the legislature; revising the penalty for failure to comply with a legislative subpoena; and providing for an effective date.

AI Summary

This bill amends Wyoming Statute 28-1-110(c) to revise the penalty for failing to comply with a legislative subpoena, which is a formal order from the legislature compelling a person to appear or provide documents. Previously, a violation could result in a fine of up to $100 and/or imprisonment for up to six months; this bill increases the maximum fine to $750 and explicitly states that both a fine and imprisonment can be imposed. The bill will take effect on July 1, 2026.
