Wyoming Safe Homes Act
Wyoming · Code of Civil Procedure · §§ 1-21-1301 to 1-21-1304 · 3 sections
Overview
The Safe Homes Act is a rental housing measure that protects tenants whose personal safety is threatened. Its core mechanisms are a right to have the locks on the dwelling changed, confidentiality and privilege protections that bar disclosure of a tenant's protected information, and an affirmative defense a tenant may raise in proceedings arising from the covered circumstances; violations of the lock-change and nondisclosure duties carry penalties. The act's protections cannot be waived or modified by agreement, and public housing is outside its coverage.
