Wyo. R. App. P. 13.01 (2026)

Rule 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.
