Maximum claim
This state ties venue to the defendant's residence rather than to the events.
A single argument stays a single case; it cannot be carved up to fit the limit.
The remedy here is money. Orders telling someone to do or stop something sit with higher courts.
Wyoming allows attorneys at the hearing, but none is required. The procedures are designed for self-representation.
Minors take part through a guardian appointed by the court.
This state requires notarized filing documents. Squabble prepares them notarization-ready.
This state expects your supporting evidence to be submitted with the filing, not just brought to the hearing.
Over the limit? You can lower your claim to fit and stay in small claims, or file the full amount in regular civil court. Lowering usually means giving up the excess, so weigh it carefully.

A filed case still has to reach the defendant. Formal notice, known as service of process, does that, and delivering it personally is generally not allowed. The usual route in Wyoming is the sheriff or constable or email service where the court allows it.
Who may serve depends on the court: law enforcement, a paid process server, the clerk by certified mail, or a disinterested adult. Costs and rules are local.
Courts set their own cut-off for how many days before the hearing notice must land. The clerk gives you that date along with the hearing date. Defendant must be served within 9-day window (3-12 days prior to hearing).
Whoever serves the papers completes a proof of service, which is filed with the court before the hearing.
