Municipal courts-maximum penalties.

HB 51 increases the maximum penalties municipal courts in Wyoming can impose for violations of city ordinances. It raises the maximum fine from $750 to $1,000 per offense and extends the maximum jail term from six months to one year. This bill directly affects individuals convicted of local ordinance violations (such as traffic tickets or noise complaints) handled in municipal courts. The changes apply to all municipal court cases involving city ordinances and take effect on July 1, 2025. The bill amends specific sections of Wyoming law (W.S. 5-6-201, 5-6-210, and 5-6-301) to reflect these updated penalty limits.
