Treatment courts-transfer to judicial branch.
This bill transfers oversight of court-supervised treatment programs from Wyoming's Department of Health to the Wyoming Supreme Court. It updates related statutes (including W.S. 5-12-101 and 7-13-304) to clarify the court's role in approving programs, setting requirements, and managing expenses. The change directly affects treatment programs, courts, and defendants participating in these programs by shifting administrative responsibility. Key mechanisms include new reporting requirements for the Supreme Court and updated rules for program approval and funding.
