Wyo. Stat. § 11-22-116: Warranty of title; disposition of proceeds from sale; receipt by board.

The operator of each livestock market in this state shall warrant to the purchaser the title of all livestock sold through the market and is liable to the owner for the net proceeds in cash received for the livestock sold. When notified by the brand inspector that there is a question as to whether any designated livestock sold through the ring is lawfully owned by the consignor, the market operator shall hold the proceeds received from the sale of the livestock for a reasonable time, not to exceed sixty (60) days, to permit the consignor to establish ownership. If at the expiration of that time the consignor fails to establish his lawful ownership of the livestock to the satisfaction of the brand inspector, the proceeds shall be transmitted by the operator to the board. The board may dispose of the proceeds in accordance with the law relating to the distribution of estray money, and the board's receipt shall relieve the operator from further responsibility for the proceeds.
