Claire Smith
Deputy Administrator/Chief Fiscal Officer
Welcome to the Administrative Office of the Courts
The Wyoming Supreme Court created the Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC) in 2000. Wyoming’s State Court Administrator is appointed by the Chief Justice of the Wyoming Supreme Court and serves at the pleasure of the Supreme Court. The mission of the AOC is to provide administrative, technical, educational, financial, payroll, auditing and human resources support to Wyoming judges and their support staff in an accurate, timely, and efficient manner. Through direction of the Wyoming Judicial Council, the AOC serves as a liaison between the Executive and Legislative Branch, law enforcement, and members of the public.
We are happy to have you visit our website and learn more about us. Our goal is to help the Judicial Branch serve the public.
Links to descriptions of the Judicial Committees and Boards and programs can be found on the home page. If you need help finding information on our website, please do not hesitate to contact us.
