The bill authorizes the assignment of cases and proceedings from circuit courts and district courts to chancery court judges in Wyoming. It specifies that a district court judge may assign cases to a circuit or chancery court judge, and a circuit court judge may do the same for district court judges, with the requirement that consent is obtained from all parties involved in civil actions. Additionally, retired chancery court judges are permitted to provide judicial services upon request, with their assignments not affecting their retirement benefits.

Key amendments include the insertion of provisions allowing retired judges from the chancery court to be called upon for service and the establishment of new subsections that outline the responsibilities and expenses associated with these assignments. The bill also clarifies that expenses incurred by chancery court judges while holding court in circuit or district courts will be charged to the respective court's fund. The act is set to take effect immediately upon its passage.
