Attorney general opinions.
HB 101 modifies Wyoming's law governing the attorney general's duty to provide written legal opinions. It allows the attorney general to decline issuing opinions when doing so would violate Wyoming's Rules of Professional Conduct for attorneys, after receiving written notice of the request. This directly affects state officers (elected or appointed) and legislators who seek formal legal advice from the attorney general. The change takes effect July 1, 2024, clarifying when the attorney general may refuse to provide such opinions.
