This bill establishes a new right of appeal for the state in criminal cases, specifically allowing the state to appeal from various orders and judgments as outlined in the newly created W.S. 7-12-105. The orders from which the state may appeal include, but are not limited to, final judgments of dismissal of indictments, orders suppressing evidence, and orders granting new trials. Additionally, the state is granted the ability to seek discretionary appellate review of any interlocutory order entered before jeopardy attaches.

The bill also sets an effective date for these provisions, which will take effect on July 1, 2025. This legislation aims to enhance the state's ability to challenge decisions that may impede the prosecution of criminal cases, thereby reinforcing the integrity of the criminal justice system.
