The bill amends the judicial review process for agency actions in Wyoming, specifically addressing the conditions under which individuals can seek judicial review. It removes the previous requirement for the exhaustion of administrative remedies and the absence of any statutory or common-law provisions that limit judicial review. Instead, it establishes a series of new conditions that must be met for judicial review to be granted. These include the requirement that all administrative remedies must be exhausted before seeking judicial review, that there must be no statutory or common-law provisions precluding judicial review, and that the review must occur in specific district courts based on the location of the injury, the administrative action, or the residence of the aggrieved party.

Additionally, the bill specifies that the right to judicial review does not apply to actions related to public employment unless they are the final decision in a contested case or judicial review is otherwise provided by law. The act is set to apply to agency actions and inactions occurring on or after July 1, 2025, and will take effect on that same date.
