SF 28 Wyoming House · 2022 Regular Session

Sex offender termination of duty to register-amendments.

This bill changes Wyoming's sex offender registration law by counting periods when offenders weren't required to register (such as during incarceration or other exemptions) toward the 10- or 25-year waiting periods needed to seek relief from registration requirements. It affects sex offenders who have maintained a clean record for those periods and now qualify for relief based on total time (including non-registration periods). The bill requires petitioners to serve notices on the Division of Criminal Investigation and local prosecutors, who can file responses within 30 days. It applies to all offenders sentenced before, on, or after the law takes effect.
