Section 1-8 - Lease Cancellation Proceedings

(a) A contested case, as defined by W.S. 16-3-101(b)(ii), shall be held, if requested by the lessee, before the Board cancels any lease.

(b) A lease cancellation proceeding shall be commenced when the Director files a "request for cancellation" in the record. A request for cancellation shall:

  • (i) Identify the lease requested to be cancelled; and
  • (ii) Allege in ordinary, concise language, the facts and the law which form the grounds for the cancellation.

(c) Service. The Director shall serve a copy of the request for cancellation upon the lessee at least thirty (30) days before the Board acts on the request.

(d) Request for Hearing. The lessee shall have twenty (20) days from the date of service of the request for cancellation to request a hearing. The request shall be in writing to the Director. If no hearing is requested within the allowed time, the lessee shall be deemed to have waived the opportunity for a hearing and the Board shall proceed to consider the request for cancellation.

(e) Response.

  • (i) The lessee shall file a response to the request for cancellation by attaching the response to the request for hearing.
  • (ii) If the lessee fails to file a response with the request for hearing, the allegations contained in the request for cancellation shall be deemed true.
