• Jurisdiction: Wyoming
• Title 17: Corporations, Partnerships and Associations
• Ch. 21: UNIFORM PARTNERSHIP ACT
• Art. 1: GENERAL PROVISIONS

Text

(a) A statement may be filed in the office of the
secretary of state. A certified copy of a statement that is
filed in an office in another state may be filed in the office
of the secretary of state. Either filing has the effect provided
in this chapter with respect to partnership property located in
or transactions that occur in this state. If a statement of
partnership authority is filed with the secretary of state under
W.S. 17-21-303, all statements provided for under this chapter
subsequent to the filing of this statement shall be filed with
the secretary of state in accordance with this chapter. If the
secretary of state refuses to file a statement, the secretary of
state shall return it to a partner or representative within
fifteen (15) days after the document was delivered, together
with a brief, written explanation of the reason for the refusal.
(b) A certified copy of a statement that has been filed in
the office of the secretary of state that is recorded in the
office for recording transfers of real property shall have the
effect provided for recorded statements in this chapter. A
recorded statement that is not a certified copy of a statement
filed in the office of the secretary of state shall not have the
effect provided for recorded statements in this chapter.
(c) A statement filed by a partnership must be executed by
at least two (2) partners. Other statements must be executed by
a partner or other person authorized by this chapter. An
individual who executes a statement as, or on behalf of, a
partner or other person named as a partner in a statement must
personally declare under penalty of perjury that the contents of
the statement are accurate.
(d) A person authorized by this chapter to file a
statement may amend or cancel the statement by filing an
amendment or cancellation that names the partnership, identifies
the statement and states the substance of the amendment or
cancellation.
(e) A person who files a statement pursuant to this
section shall promptly send a copy of the statement to every
partner and to any other person named as a partner in the
statement. Failure to send a copy of a statement to a partner
or other person does not limit the effectiveness of the
statement as to a person not a partner.
(f) The secretary of state shall collect a fee of ten
dollars ($10.00) for filing or providing a certified copy of a
statement. The appropriate county clerk shall collect a fee of
ten dollars ($10.00) for recording a statement.
