How to Search Wyoming Court Records (Start Here)

Wyoming court records are filed with the Clerk of District Court. The District Court / Circuit Court handles trial-level cases. Wyoming offers a statewide court search through Wyoming Courts, which covers most case types across all counties courts.

What this page covers: Wyoming state court case records — criminal, civil, family, and probate filings. What it does not cover: Federal court cases (those are on PACER) or sealed/juvenile records.

Where to start: Use Wyoming Courts for online case search. If you need documents beyond docket information, contact the Clerk of District Court in the specific county where the case was filed.

Common mistake: Wyoming Courts covers state courts only. Federal cases filed in Wyoming (bankruptcy, federal criminal, federal civil) require PACER — a separate federal system.

The 4-Step Wyoming Court Records Pathway

1
Step 1 — Identify the court level
In Wyoming, civil and criminal trial cases sit in Wyoming Judicial Branch trial courts. Appellate matters go to the state's appellate courts.

Start at https://www.wyocourts.gov/case-search/ — the official public case-access for Wyoming.
3
Step 3 — Federal cases are separate
Federal cases involving Wyoming parties live on PACER (pacer.uscourts.gov), not the state system.

Step 4 — Sealed / expunged records

Five Things People Get Wrong About Wyoming Court Records

❌ Myth: "Wyoming court records are on PACER."
✓ Truth: False. PACER only has federal cases. Wyoming state court records live on www.wyocourts.gov.
❌ Myth: "All Wyoming case files are free."
✓ Truth: Partly true. Searching and viewing dockets is usually free. Downloading full documents or certified copies often costs $1-$5 per item.
❌ Myth: "Sealed = deleted in Wyoming."
✓ Truth: False. Sealed records still exist — they're just hidden from public search. The court clerk and law enforcement can still access them.
❌ Myth: "Third-party search sites are official."
✓ Truth: False. Only www.wyocourts.gov and the linked official portals are authoritative for Wyoming.
❌ Myth: "Same-day filings show online immediately."
✓ Truth: False. Most Wyoming courts have a 24-48 hour processing lag before new filings appear in public search.
