SF 25 Wyoming House · 2023 Regular Session

District and prosecuting attorneys-bar license requirement.

Wyoming's SF 25 requires all elected or appointed district attorneys and county prosecutors to maintain active membership in the Wyoming State Bar throughout their entire term of office. This applies to current and future officials whose terms begin after July 1, 2023, extending the existing requirement that they be licensed bar members at the time of election. The bill amends statutes to remove any gap in the requirement, ensuring prosecutors remain in good standing with the bar for the full duration of their service. This change directly affects all 23 Wyoming judicial districts' prosecuting attorneys, mandating ongoing compliance with bar membership rules.
