What is the deadline in Wyoming?
Wyoming: 4 years for product liability (Wyo. Stat. Ann. § 1-3-105(a)(iv)(C)). Discovery rule applies — limitations begin when the plaintiff discovers or should have discovered the injury and its cause. Wyoming's 4-year SOL provides extended filing time. A lawyer can confirm yours.

Deadlines vary; a lawyer can confirm yours. An older diagnosis or a past filing window does not, by itself, establish whether you have a claim.
02 · Where cases are heard
Where would my case be heard?
Wyoming's tiny population of 580,000 — the smallest of any state — and vast geography create extreme healthcare access challenges that shape gabapentin prescribing patterns. The state's economy depends on energy extraction (coal, oil, natural gas), ranching, and tourism — physically demanding industries that produce elevated chronic pain rates. Wyoming has not scheduled gabapentin as a controlled substance. Medical resources are concentrated in Cheyenne and Casper, with much of the state having no neurology access whatsoever.
Wyoming gabapentin cases are filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Wyoming (Cheyenne or Casper) or in Wyoming district courts. Wyoming follows modified comparative fault with a 50% bar. The state does not cap compensatory damages in product liability cases. Wyoming's small population means few total claimants but high per-case values due to elevated energy sector wages. The state's 4-year SOL provides extended filing flexibility.
