Facing foreclosure in Jackson or elsewhere across Teton County, Wyoming? Wyoming is a non-judicial foreclosure state, where most foreclosures proceed under the power of sale in the mortgage or trust deed. Because the sale moves outside the courts, a homeowner seeking to challenge it typically files a civil action in Wyoming District Court. Acting early can make a meaningful difference.

In Wyoming's non-judicial framework, the process is driven by the power of sale in the mortgage or trust deed. Knowing where you are in the process — from a missed payment to a posted Notice of Sale — helps you respond at the right time and preserve the options still available to you.
The lender declares a default and accelerates the loan balance, invoking the power-of-sale provision. This is the point to begin exploring loss mitigation.
Wyoming law requires at least 25 days' notice of the foreclosure sale. The notice must be published and provided to the homeowner as required by statute.
Stopping a non-judicial sale requires a court-issued temporary restraining order or injunction, obtained through a civil lawsuit filed in Wyoming District Court.
Wyoming's 25-day sale notice period is short. Once the Notice of Sale is issued, prompt action in District Court is essential if you intend to challenge the foreclosure. We encourage Teton County homeowners to review their notices promptly so they can make an informed decision about how to respond.

Civil action needed to seek an injunction
Wyoming is a non-judicial foreclosure state. Most foreclosures proceed under the power of sale contained in the mortgage or trust deed, without court involvement — unless the homeowner files a civil action. Familiarity with this framework helps property owners understand their position and the decisions that may lie ahead.
The process generally begins with a default on the secured obligation. Before any public action, help with loss mitigation may still be worth exploring early.

Wyoming law requires at least 25 days' notice of the foreclosure sale. The notice must be published and provided to the homeowner as required by statute.
If no challenge is filed, the property is sold at a public auction under the power of sale. Because Wyoming is non-judicial, a homeowner seeking to stop or challenge the sale files a civil action in Wyoming District Court and may seek an injunction or TRO.
Because the Wyoming power-of-sale path does not run through the courts, a borrower seeking to stop a sale must file a civil complaint in Wyoming District Court for the county where the property is located.
