§ 2-7-707 — Repayment of public assistance

If any recipient of assistance under statutes of Wyoming
governing programs of public welfare dies possessed of money or
property and a claim for repayment of such assistance is filed
against the estate of the deceased, the court in which the
estate is being probated shall order the claim to be paid out of
the assets of the estate after the claims in W.S. 2-7-701 (a)(i)
through (viii) are paid and satisfied. No claim for repayment of
assistance shall be enforced against any property of the estate
that may be necessary for the support, maintenance or education
of the decedent's surviving spouse, minor child or other
dependent.
