Wyoming Supreme Court stays Laramie attorney suspension – County 17
CHEYENNE, Wyo. — The Wyoming Supreme Court has stayed the suspension of Laramie attorney Vaughn H. Neubauer from the practice of law.
That’s according to a release from the Wyoming State Bar, which states the suspension was to last 30 days.
The court ordered the stay so long as Neubauer complies with probationary terms for a period of six months — intended to assure the efficient operation of his office — as well as court rules and deadlines.
The release notes the order of suspension came from Neubauer’s lack of diligence in representing two clients.
“Neubauer failed to timely file a brief with the Wyoming Supreme Court appealing a decision of the District Court, resulting in dismissal of the appeal,” the release states. “Upon learning of the looming deadline, Neubauer requested an extension of time and reinstatement of the appeal in which Neubauer took responsibility for the failure to timely file the brief. Both requests were denied.”
Further, in a separate matter, Neubauer failed to file a petition for Post-Conviction Relief.
“Following commencement of disciplinary investigations by the Office of Bar Counsel, Neubauer admitted that the failure to file the documents violated Rule 1.3 (diligence) and caused injury to his clients,” the release states. “Neubauer agreed to reimburse the fees paid and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the clients. Neubauer agreed to the suspension and probationary terms which included the implementation of formal office policies and procedures and monthly reports to the Office of Bar Counsel regarding Neubauer’s compliance with probationary terms.”
Correction, May 29, 2025: A previous version of the story did not include the stay of suspension in the lead paragraph and headline. The story has been corrected.

A number candidates attended the Take Back Wyoming: Non-Freedom Caucus Republican Candidates Shop Party at Ryan Brothers Trucking last Friday. The event was hosted by and was a fundraiser for a House District 28 candidate.
The group was comprised of Wyoming Republican voters, who have become disenchanted with the Freedom Caucus, which currently controls the Wyoming State Legislature, and with actions taken in recent months by the State of Wyoming Republican Party to change the party’s By-Laws regarding support for candidates prior to the primary election.
Since moving to Wyoming many years ago, and having lived in a few towns around the state, I find that some town and city rivalries must be addressed. Some are based on past conflicts that still cause pain to this day. Some are unexplained.
For example, to this day, all of Johnson County still does not trust Cheyenne after the Johnson County War of 1892. Cattlemen in Cheyenne sent a hit squad hired by the barons to invade Johnson County to eliminate alleged rustlers. A shootout that lasted several days ensued.
Other town rivalries include:
Green River vs. Rock Springs: The two towns are close together and share one of the most intense and oldest community, cultural, and athletic rivalries in the state.
Lander vs. Riverton: Located in Fremont County, this rivalry dates back to 1922 and divides the area over high school football bragging rights. They talk a lot of smack about each other.
Cheyenne vs Casper: The towns just HATE each other. I’ve lived in both, and I can tell you that there is nothing wrong with either town. But I’ve come across people in both towns who talk about their hatred of the other.
There is not a lot of love across Wyoming for Jackson, mostly because of the mega-rich liberals who live there. Many of those mega-rich liberals look down on the rest of Wyoming.
Folks talk smack about Laramie, but in a very different way than people talk smack about Gillette.
Having traveled around Wyoming, I can tell you that most of this hate is just nonsense and a waste of time. In the end, we are all Wyomingites. Just one big bickering family who still have each other’s backs when it comes down to it.
