- Statute of limitations
- 4 years on most PI under Wyo. Stat. § 1-3-105(a)(iv)(C) ("for an injury to the rights of the plaintiff, not arising on contract and not herein enumerated"); unusually long compared to national norm (most states 2-3 years). Wrongful death 2 years from decedent's death under Wyo. Stat. § 1-38-102(d), brought by wrongful-death representative for exclusive benefit of statutory beneficiaries. Medical malpractice 2 years from act/error/omission under § 1-3-107, with discovery rule and 6-month extension if discovery occurs in second year; Wyoming Supreme Court held the 2-year limitation unconstitutional as applied to minors' med-mal claims (2014). Wyoming Governmental Claims Act notice within 2 years under § 1-39-113; agency has 6 months to investigate before suit may be filed
- Comparative fault
- Modified comparative fault under Wyo. Stat. § 1-1-109 with the 51% bar form: claimant recovers only if her contributory fault is "not more than fifty percent (50%) of the total fault of all actors." Damages diminished in proportion to claimant's percentage of fault. Plaintiff at exactly 50% recovers (reduced); plaintiff at 51% or more is barred. Joint and several liability ABOLISHED in 1986 (repeal of Wyo. Stat. § 1-1-113 by Laws 1986, ch. 24, § 2); each defendant severally liable only for the portion of damages corresponding to that defendant's own percentage of fault
- Distinctive
- WYOMING CONSTITUTION ART. 10, § 4(a) EXPRESSLY PROHIBITS damages caps: "No law shall be enacted limiting the amount of damages to be recovered for causing the injury or death of any person." Wyoming joins the small group of states with constitutional anti-cap protection (AZ, KY, OK, KS, AR). NO statutory cap on general PI noneconomic damages. NO statutory cap on medical malpractice (§ 4(b) permits legislature to mandate ADR or medical review panels but does not authorize damages caps). NO cap on punitive damages; clear-and-convincing common-law standard requiring willful, wanton, malicious, or reckless disregard. Public-entity cap under Wyo. Stat. § 1-39-118: $250,000 per claimant / $500,000 aggregate per occurrence; no exemplary or punitive damages, prejudgment interest, or attorney fees against governmental entity. Premises liability RETAINS the traditional invitee/licensee/trespasser tripartite framework. Common-law one-bite dog rule (no statewide statute); owner liability where owner knew or reasonably should have known of dangerous propensities (behavior short of actual prior bite can establish scienter). Auto liability minimums 25/50/20; UM/UIM offered but waivable in writing (not strictly mandatory). WY is at-fault tort, not no-fault.

- Wyoming's 2024 Report on Traffic Crashes published by WYDOT Highway Safety Program. Wildlife-vehicle collisions are an outsized share of state crash burden: deer-vehicle collisions average 6,651/year (~87% of wildlife-related; ~5,500 mule deer); pronghorn 593/year; elk 253/year; moose 69/year. Five-year average 7,656 wildlife collisions annually. WYDOT estimates ~21 big-game collisions per day statewide (8 with significant vehicle damage or human injury). Average per-collision cost ranges $10,500 (deer) to $25,319 (elk) to $37,873 (moose); statewide annual cost ~$55 million. I-80 is dominant freight corridor and recurring scene of multi-vehicle pileups, jackknifed semis, and mountain-pass winter crashes (NTSB-investigated 2/14/2025 Green River tunnel crash on black ice; 4/29/2025 fatal hit-and-run at I-80 milepost 99; 2/26 multi-vehicle crashes near Evanston closed both directions). Yellowstone-related tourist exposure concentrates in Park County (Cody is eastern gateway); 2007-2023 saw 74 deaths within park boundaries (medical 25%+, hydrothermal features 20+, hiking/climbing 15). Powder River Basin oilfield and coal-haul trucking spillover affects Campbell and Sheridan; Wyoming has been the nation's leading coal producer since 1986 (~40% of U.S. coal output from Powder River Basin mines). State population ~586,000. Top counties (WY has 23, smallest U.S. state population): Laramie (Cheyenne, ~101,800, 17.3% of state, capital, F.E. Warren AFB, I-25/I-80 junction), Natrona (Casper, ~80,400, 13.7%, energy hub, I-25), Campbell (Gillette, ~47,900, 8.2%, Powder River Basin coal, I-90), Sweetwater (Rock Springs/Green River, ~41,300, 7%, I-80, energy), Albany (Laramie, UW), Fremont (Riverton/Lander, Wind River Reservation), Park (Cody Yellowstone gateway), Sheridan (I-90, ranch and energy), Teton (Jackson, ~24,000, Grand Teton/Yellowstone tourism, highest median income), Carbon (Rawlins, I-80). Major commercial corridors: I-80 (transcontinental east-west across southern WY from NE line through Cheyenne, Laramie, Rawlins, Rock Springs, Green River to UT line; one of most heavily trafficked transcontinental freight corridors in U.S.; notorious for winter pileups), I-25 (CO line through Cheyenne and Casper to Buffalo), I-90 (SD line through Gillette, Buffalo, Sheridan to MT line; Powder River Basin freight and Black Hills tourism), US-30/287/85/89 (secondary regional and tourist; Yellowstone access via US-89 and US-287). Dominant insurers: Mountain West Farm Bureau Mutual (HQ Cheyenne with Laramie operations; Wyoming Farm Bureau Federation affiliate; meaningful WY/MT regional carrier); State Farm, Progressive, GEICO, Allstate, Farmers (national); USAA (F.E. Warren AFB Cheyenne, military communities). Notable 2024-2025 outcomes: $9,460,000 final judgment affirmed on appeal (jury awarded $22,000,000) for injured miner and his children against mine manager and safety manager for failing to remediate dangerous workplace conditions causing brain injury and paralysis (Casper attorney Jason Ochs, jury verdict 11/1/2023; among largest WY judgments ever affirmed). WY verdict landscape shaped by rural conservative jury pools across 23 mostly small counties; large verdicts cluster in Laramie, Natrona, and Campbell County courts where population is concentrated

Why Wyoming Premises & PI Files Reward Constitutional Anti-Cap-Aware Pre-Screening
Wyoming Constitution Art. 10, § 4(a) expressly prohibits the legislature from enacting damages caps for personal injury or death. NO statutory cap on PI noneconomic, med-mal noneconomic, or punitive damages. WY joins the small constitutional anti-cap club (AZ, KY, OK, KS, AR). 4-year general PI SOL (§ 1-3-105(a)(iv)(C)) is unusually long. 51% bar comparative fault (§ 1-1-109) with abolished J&S (1986). Tripartite premises framework retained. Wildlife-vehicle collisions average 7,656/year ($55M annual cost). I-80 transcontinental + Powder River Basin coal/oilfield + Yellowstone tourism. The $9.46M affirmed final judgment (jury $22M) for an injured miner in Casper (2023) exemplifies the Wyoming damages environment.
