     (a) With the approval of the governor, the attorney
general may appoint assistant attorneys general necessary for
the efficient operation of his office. Each assistant attorney
general shall be a member in good standing of the Wyoming bar
and shall serve at the pleasure of the attorney general. The
assistants shall act under the direction of the attorney general
and his deputies. The attorney general, his deputies or his
assistants may appear in any courts of the state or the United
States and prosecute or defend on behalf of the state. An
appearance by the attorney general or his staff does not waive
the sovereign immunity of the state.

may appoint special assistant attorneys general for any
purposes. A person shall not be employed as an attorney or legal
counsel by any department, board, agency, commission or
institution of the state, or represent the state in that
capacity, except by the written appointment of the attorney
general. Written appointment of the attorney general shall not
be required for the employment of legal counsel by elected state
officials.

     (c) At the request of any state department, board, agency,
commission or institution, the attorney general may assign
special assistant attorneys general to the department, board,
agency, commission or institution.
