Cheyenne, WY On Friday, Novemeber 20, the Wyoming Supreme Court announced a change to its rules for responding to public records requests for case information in order to better protect the privacy of individuals. The court decided in January to begin redacting personal information from court files, including social security numbers and other financial information as well as home addresses, birth dates, and the names of minors and children. While the court argues that the steps were better made to protect personal privacy, many members of the media claim that the rule goes too far. [1]
