Does a Preliminary Notice of Right to Lien need to filed with the court? We are a subcontractor working under a general contractor.

The Wyoming preliminary notice (specifically the Notice of Right to Lien) is governed by Wyo. Stat. §29-2-11. Under this statute, to secure your right to file a Wyoming mechanics lien, the preliminary notice must be sent to the owner on record or their agent. There is no requirement that a Notice of Right to Lien needs to be filed with the county clerks office. Only sent to that it contains the information required by §29-10-101, and sent within 30 days after the first date the sub or supplier provided labor or materials to the project by certified mail with return receipt requested. (For GCs, the notice must be provided before receiving any payment from the owner). For further reading, see: Wyoming Preliminary Notices Guide
