(a) This article shall be effective only if a court has
enjoined the enforcement or applicability of W.S. 35-6-401
through 35-6-404 or has held that W.S. 35-6-401 through 35-6-404
violates the Wyoming constitution or the United States
constitution.

     (b) The attorney general shall review the decisions of any
court that challenges W.S. 35-6-401 through 35-6-404 to
determine whether W.S. 35-6-401 through 35-6-404 are
enforceable. If the attorney general determines that W.S. 35-6-
401 through 35-6-404 are not enforceable or cannot take effect,
the attorney general shall, within thirty (30) days of the date
of the decision, report that fact to the governor, the joint
judiciary interim committee and the governor, who may certify
the effectiveness of this article to the secretary of state.

     (c) After receiving certification from the governor that
this article is effective, the secretary of state shall report
that fact to the management council of the legislature, the
joint judiciary interim committee and the Wyoming state board of
medicine and shall immediately publish the effective date of
this article on the website of the secretary of state, which
effective date shall be five (5) days after the secretary of
state receives certification under subsection (b) of this
section.

     (d) To the extent that W.S. 35-6-401 through 35-6-404 are
enjoined but later determined to be legal, constitutional or
enforceable after this article has taken effect, the provisions
of W.S. 35-6-401 through 35-6-404 shall control and take
precedence over this article.
