The Wyoming Supreme Court upheld a statutory private road but struck unsupported repair and truck restrictions, clarifying necessity, route selection, and damages.
The Wyoming Supreme Court held that a county board lacked substantial evidence to downgrade a home’s condition rating and reinstated the assessor’s valuation.
The Wyoming Supreme Court affirmed a finding that a mediated settlement email was unenforceable because the parties never agreed on whether ditch access would be implemented through an easement, license, or other interest and never specified whether a storage restriction would run with the land or remain a personal obligation, leaving essential terms undefined and creating at most an agreement to agree.
The Wyoming Supreme Court affirmed dismissal of a daughter’s declaratory judgment action seeking to establish that her late father’s interest in real property passed to his estate rather than to her mother by survivorship. The court held that a 2012 quiet title decree identifying the parents as “Husband and Wife” created a tenancy by the entirety under longstanding Wyoming common law, and that the 2023 codification of that presumption in Wyoming Statute § 34-1-140(b) merely clarified — rather than changed — pre-existing law.
