Governmental claims-negligent investigations.

HB 53 amends Wyoming law to remove liability for government entities when peace officers negligently investigate crimes while acting within their official duties. It specifically states that criminal suspects cannot sue for damages resulting from such negligent investigations, directly affecting individuals who might have filed negligence claims against law enforcement. The bill modifies Wyoming Statute 1-39-112 to exclude negligent investigations from government liability under the Wyoming Governmental Claims Act. This change overrules a recent Wyoming Supreme Court decision (Palm-Egle v. Briggs) and applies to all claims arising on or after its effective date.
