Wyo. R. Prac. & P. 12
The courts have no duty to provide compiled information. However, any person may request compiled information directly from the clerk of court, if the request consists solely of information that is publicly accessible, is not already available in an existing report, and pertains to new filings, dispositions, judgments, and satisfaction of judgments. Requests for compiled information shall identify what information is sought, describe the purpose for requesting the information, explain how the information will benefit the public interest, and explain provisions for the secure protection of any information requested. An applicant requesting compiled information shall be required to certify that the data will not be sold or otherwise distributed directly or indirectly to third parties, that the information will not be used directly or indirectly to sell a product or services to an individual or the general public, and that the information will not be copied or duplicated, except in the public interest. Compiled information requests shall be limited to no greater than the preceding three month period from the date of request. Absent a showing of good cause, the clerks of court shall provide compiled information within the above limitations; for purposes of this rule, good cause means the court's electronic case management system is not capable of compiling the requested information. The Supreme Court may compile and provide additional information if it determines, in the exercise of its discretion, that providing the information meets the criteria established herein, that the resources are available to compile the information, and that it is an appropriate use of public resources. The State Court Administrator shall make the initial determination and recommendation to the Supreme Court as to whether to provide the additional compiled information.
