Wyoming Questions & Answers
Q: Can you get charge for an m.I.p. and/or use of marijuana if you fight a D.U.I. in Wyoming?
Paul Stanko's answer
He can be charged with anything the prosecutor wants to charge. Prosecutors have virtually unlimited discretion. Based on what you have said, he definitely should get an attorney to represent him.

Q: What to plea
Paul Stanko's answer
If he doesn't know how to plead, he should probably plead not guilty. It is generally not wise to plead guilty at the arraignment. If he is not happy with his public defender, he should seek private counsel.

Q: Can I press charges when someone who agreed to hold my belongings in their spare space sells it without my consent?
Paul Stanko's answer
Contact the appropriate police agency and file a report. It is up to the prosecutor to file charges, but those facts would indicate criminal conduct.

Q: How can a adult assault a minor child and not get a felony ?
Paul Stanko's answer
It is up to the prosecutor which charges to file. A prosecutor will look at the facts, the elements of a particular offense, and determine whether he has enough evidence to prove the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. If not, then he will not file charges.

Q: Can a company withhold severance if you don't agree to not say anything negative about them?
David Alan Wolf's answer
In many states, a severance package is not required. As such, a company may have no obligation to pay out a severance package even if it is the right thing to do. Consult with a Wyoming employment attorney to find out your rights. Good luck.

Q: Is it possible to find out if a certain Case has ever been Cited on any Appeals, if so, how do you find out which Cases.
Robert Jason De Groot's answer
It depends upon whether the case was an appeal which will be listed in the law books. Was it an appeal? If so, it was probably put into one of the reporters and is searchable. There are ways to find whether the case has ever been cited. Get to a law library.

Q: Can a 17 year old run away with a 18 year old to Colorado
Robert Jason De Groot's answer
Yes, that can happen. If it does, the child will become just another missing child and the parents will worry incessantly. In addition, the 18 year old can probably be charged with some very serious crimes, the least of which would probably be contributing.

Q: Defense witness unable to locate for trial what can I do?
Robert Jason De Groot's answer
Speak with your attorney about this. If you do not have one, get one. Perhaps the court will allow a continuance so that the witness can be located and served.

Q: The age of consent for Wyoming is posted as 16 and 17. However WY Stat § 6-4-303 seems to contradict this.
Robert Jason De Groot's answer
"Child" means a person under the age of eighteen (18) years. That is in (a) (i) from the 2011 statutes. But a simple internet search reveals, on google, this:The age of consent for sex is 16 years old for women, while it is 18 years old for men. Having sex with a minor below the age of consent is known as statutory rape. The age of consent law in Wyoming only specifically addresses heterosexual conduct.
This must mean that the court in Wyoming has interpreted it, that there are cases...

Terrence H Thorgaard's answer
The worst? Sorry, but you are asking me to imagine all sorts of grisly possibilities, which I won't do. In general, collection agencies annoy you with repeated phone calls, and sometimes find a collection attorney to sue you on a contingent-fee basis. To my knowledge they seldom bother with debtors who are no longer in the U.S.
