What is the deadline to file a mechanic’s lien in Wyoming?
In Wyoming, a contractor must file its lien statement within 150 days of the earlier of the last day work was performed or materials furnished under the contract and substantial completion of the project. A contractor must send the record owner the statutory preliminary notice of its lien rights before receiving any payment from the owner, including advances, and failing to send it bars the lien. At least 20 days before filing, the claimant must send the record owner written notice of intention to file the lien. An action to foreclose the lien must be commenced within 180 days after the lien statement is filed. A subcontractor or supplier often has different notice requirements and deadlines. This is Wyo. Stat. §§ 29-2-106, 29-2-112, 29-2-107, 29-2-109.
