How to Find Someone in Wyoming

Wyoming is the state where the search goes to the county first. The Judicial Branch's own site offers no case search and says that the clerk of district court, an elected county official, keeps the court record and the docket; vital events are filed with the registrar in the county of occurrence before the state records them; and the registry is built from what each county sheriff's office reports, entered into a real time database. What the state puts online by name is the Sex Offender Registry, the Board of Medicine's Physician and PA Lookup, a business filing search, an unclaimed property search and DCI's cold case viewer.

The order to use: the registry and the Board of Medicine lookup for status and profession, the business filing search for a company name, the unclaimed property search for a last address, then the clerk of district court, the circuit court and the county offices for cases, deeds and parcels, listed on the Wyoming county pages at SearchSystems, with Vital Records Services or the county registrar for certificates and DCI for a criminal history on its terms.

Written by SearchSystems.net from Wyoming's own systems: the Wyoming Judicial Branch, the Wyoming Department of Corrections, the Wyoming Division of Criminal Investigation, the Wyoming Board of Medicine, the Wyoming Secretary of State, the Wyoming Department of Health, the Wyoming State Treasurer, the Office of the Governor, each read on October 13, 2026 by the SearchSystems editorial team.

The courts: no state search, and a clerk in every county seat

The Wyoming Judicial Branch site, newly redesigned when read, offers legal help, bill payment, e-filing, Supreme Court opinion summaries, forms, rules and live streams, and no case search by name. Its own description of the courts says where the records are: the district courts are the trial courts of general jurisdiction for felony, civil, juvenile and probate matters, with 27 district judges in nine judicial districts holding court in each county seat, and the clerk of district court is the elected county official who keeps the court record, maintaining the electronic case files of complaints, answers, pleadings, orders, judgments and opinions and a docket of all cases filed and decided. The circuit courts serve the nine districts and 23 counties with civil cases up to $50,000, small claims up to $6,000, all misdemeanors, family violence, stalking, sexual assault and eviction cases, bail and preliminary hearings in felony cases, and a Chancery Court created by 2019 legislation hears commercial, business and trust cases over $50,000. The Supreme Court in Cheyenne, with five justices, is the final arbiter under state law, and its clerk keeps its records, papers and journals. A Wyoming case is therefore found through the clerk of district court or the circuit court in the county, listed on the Wyoming county pages at SearchSystems.

The Wyoming Department of Corrections and its five facilities

The Wyoming Department of Corrections page read by SearchSystems describes the department rather than its records: five facilities, the Wyoming Honor Conservation Camp, the Wyoming Honor Farm, the Wyoming Medium Correctional Institution, the Wyoming State Penitentiary and the Wyoming Women's Center, three contracted adult community corrections centers in Casper and Cheyenne and at Volunteers of America Booth Hall, and statewide supervision of adult probation and parole through 23 field offices. The page offered no offender search, so whether and where the department publishes who it holds is on the department's own site rather than here.

The registry: real time, from the county sheriffs

The Division of Criminal Investigation's Sexual Offender Registration unit maintains the Wyoming Sex Offender Registry. The sheriff's office in each county tracks the offenders required to register, sends the information electronically to DCI, which reviews it for accuracy and enters it into the state database and the FBI's National Crime Information Center, and the public registry is populated from that state database, which is a real time system. The page links the Wyoming Sex Offender Act, the registration fees and an indigent form, address verification information, frequently asked questions, the OffenderWatch Family Safety App, the national public website and annual reports from 2018 through 2025, and the unit answers at (307) 777-7181 and wysors@wyo.gov. The registry application itself did not answer an automated read, so the search runs in a browser.

DCI: the criminal history unit and the cold case viewer

The Division of Criminal Investigation, created in 1973 under W.S. 9-1-611 as a division of the Attorney General's office, runs the Criminal Justice Information Services section whose units include Criminal History Records, Concealed Firearm Permits, Sex Offender Registration, Uniform Crime Reporting, the Automated Biometric Identification System and Applicant Tracking. The home page links frequently asked questions on criminal history and on background checks and fingerprinting, which is where the terms for obtaining a Wyoming criminal history record are set, and it says that public records requests to DCI go to an Assistant Attorney General at ag.publicrecords@wyo.gov or (307) 777-6710. Under HB0029 from the 2024 legislative session DCI maintains a cold case database of unsolved Wyoming homicides and felony sexual offenses committed after January 1, 1972 and unsolved for two years or more, with a public data viewer available since July 1, 2024, and the division also keeps a Wyoming Missing Persons page. DCI's headquarters are at 208 S College Dr., Cheyenne, (307) 777-7181, wydci@wyo.gov.

The Board of Medicine and the business filing search

The Wyoming Board of Medicine, serving the public and practitioners since 1905, offers a Physician and PA Lookup, a complaint form and a pending application status tool, and posts a license investigation scam alert; the lookup's fields are on the tool itself. The Secretary of State's Business Entity Search takes a filing name, starts with or contains, or a Filing ID in the form 2000-000123456, notes that a frozen page needs a refresh and a captcha, and explains that good standing means only that the paperwork and fees to form or maintain the registration are filed and current, not an endorsement. No search by officer or agent name appears on the page, so a company is found by its name and its details opened from the result. The office sits in Herschler Building East, 122 W 25th St, Cheyenne, open 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Mountain time on weekdays.

Voters: a list by request, no lookup

The Secretary of State's Election Center carries the 2026 primary on August 18 and the general election on November 3, a polling place locator, the Wyoming Votes voter information website, the voter ID law, restoration of voting rights, voter registration and voting statistics, a list of county clerks, the Election Division fees, and, among its candidate materials, a Wyoming Voter Registry List Request Form and a Daily Absentee File Request Form. No lookup of an individual registration is offered on the page, so the registry list request form is the page's route to voter records.

Vital Records Services: filed in the county, recorded by the state

The Department of Health's Vital Records Services provides access to Wyoming birth, death, marriage and divorce records, is open to the public Monday through Thursday from 9am to 4pm and on Friday by appointment at 2300 Capitol Avenue in the Hathaway Building in Cheyenne, and answers at (307) 777-7591 and wdh.vss@wyo.gov. Vital events are filed with the registrar in the county of occurrence and then recorded with the state; the office files corrections for births, deaths and marriages that occurred in Wyoming, handles acknowledgments of paternity under the Wyoming Parentage Act, W.S. 14-2-401 and following, and adoptions for persons born in Wyoming or re-adopted through Wyoming district courts, and sends events that occurred elsewhere to the CDC's Where to Write page. The ordering terms and fees are on its How to Order Certificates page.

Unclaimed property and the ombudsman

The State Treasurer's Unclaimed Property page leads with a search, an overview video updated June 4, 2026 and a claim status check, and as of July 29, 2026 put standard owner claims at around 6 to 8 weeks, with heir and dissolved business claims taking longer; holders report by November 1 each year in NAUPA format after sending a due diligence letter for property over $50 to the owner's last known address. The Governor's Public Records Ombudsman page answered an automated read with the site's title only, and the Attorney General's pages for the ombudsman and for an address confidentiality program answered Page not found at the addresses tried, so SearchSystems found no Wyoming address confidentiality program page on a state site on October 13, 2026.

Wyoming: the county first

Wyoming's people search runs through its counties: the clerk of district court and the circuit court for cases, the county registrar for vital events before the state records them, the sheriff for the registry's raw data, and the county offices for deeds and parcels, all listed on the Wyoming county pages at SearchSystems. The state adds the real time registry, a physician lookup, a business search by name, an unclaimed property search and DCI's criminal history and cold case units.

Paid people search reports on Wyoming residents are built from these county records, which is why the county pages are where their claims are checked.
