Tips from Judges:

• Carefully proofread your proposed orders. Judges routinely reject proposed orders with too many typos.
• Submit your proposed orders in Word, not PDF. This is required by the Rules for Electronic Filing and Service, Rule 8.
• Remember to ensure compliance with the Wyoming Rules Governing Access to Case Records. Neither the Clerk nor the judge is responsible for ensuring compliance.
• Consider using a conforming signature (/s/ Attorney Name) for approving orders as to form.

The eFiling system is not a public access system. The official record is housed in the court’s case management system. You can access the official record using the PASS system in the courthouse.

These are paper documents filed at the Clerk’s office directly (Pro Se filings/over the counter filings/documents filed by non-parties).

EFiling is mandatory ninety (90) days after being implemented in your county.

Access to certain cases or documents may be restricted pursuant to rule or statute. These limitations include:
• Confidential cases – you may not be able to view all documents in a confidential case if attorney entered the case “mid-stream.” Call the circuit court clerks office for assistance.
• If the document is marked confidential (Sealed, electronic) and you or your firm were not “served” the document via FSX, you will not be able to view the document in FSX.
• Cannot view documents in non-confidential cases where you or your firm are not representing any party.
• If you believe you should have access to a certain document, contact the circuit court clerks office for assistance.

If you are looking for an older case and do not see it, contact the clerk of district court.

• One transaction cannot have one document as Serve Only and another in same transaction as File & Serve (think of the envelope ). All documents in an entire transaction are (1) Serve Only (only delivered to other attorneys on the case) or (2) File Only (only submitted to the Clerk’s office for case filing) or (3) File and Serve (served to other attorneys on the case and submitted to the Clerk’s office for case filing). One transaction cannot have one document as Serve Only and another in same transaction as File & Serve (think of the envelope).
• Selecting a Document Type from the dropdown menu with a SERVE ONLY prefix does not mean that particular document will only be served. This designation is to indicate to the filer that, if selecting this document type, the filer should select the radio button Serve Only – Private (available only to sending firm and served firms) on the Review & Submit page.
• If the other party is pro se, this option will still need to be “Private,” otherwise the document will be filed into the record .

• Yes, in non-confidential cases.
• Not in confidential cases (we are working on changes to the system to make this possible).

No.

Are you representing an Intervenor, filing a motion to quash, creditor’s claim, amicus, etc.? – You cannot file at this time, but we are working with vendors to allow this in the future.

Contact the circuit court clerks office for assistance.

No, but the Wyoming attorney working with you can file via FSX for you.

Yes, but it is extremely important that you move to withdraw when your limited appearance is complete.

• When you are filing for modification or enforcement in a civil case, use Petition to Reopen.
• Contact the district court clerk for direction on selection of document types.

Party Information at Case Initiation
Be sure to add all parties to the case at filing—including available details like addresses or dates of birth.

Requests to Modify or Reopen Cases
Use the filing types Petition to Reopen or Petition to Modify to ensure the correct fee is assessed.

Serving Discovery (Not Filing)
To serve discovery without filing it with the court:

• Select document type serve only.
• Choose serve only as the delivery option.
  Skipping step 2 will result in the discovery being filed with the court.

Submitting Proposed Orders

• Include a 3-inch top margin for the judge’s signature.
• Use proposed order to route items to the judge.
• Submit most orders in Word format; for signed stipulated orders, choose proposed stipulated order and upload as PDF.

Clerk Filing Removals
Clerks have limited ability to remove filings. If a document was mistakenly filed (e.g., a proposed order stamped before signature), the party must file a motion to strike with a proposed order.

Attorney Access Notes

• FSX is not the official case record; you may encounter limited or inaccurate views.
• For old cases imported into FSX, filing dates may not match actual file stamps. Request an ROA sheet or view the file-stamped document, if accessible.
• Confidential pro se documents submitted via paper may not be visible in FSX; contact the district court clerk’s office for access while system updates are in progress.
