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. Courts in Wyoming generally rely on the sheriff or constable or email service where the court allows it.
Depending on the court: the sheriff or constable, a professional process server, the clerk by certified mail, or another adult who isn't part of the case. Methods and costs vary by county.
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).
A completed proof of service records who delivered the papers and when, and it is filed with the court beforehand.
Service is where many self-filed cases stall. Squabble can coordinate professional Service of Process so it's done correctly and on time.
