CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) - Bankruptcy filings rose 60 percent in
Wyoming last year, with nearly 1,400 bankruptcies filed in 2009.
Bankruptcy Court Clerk Tim Ellis in Cheyenne says that compares
to 866 such cases filed in 2008.
Still, Ellis says the numbers were far below the state record of
3,300 bankruptcies set in 2005. Filings nationwide rose that year
before new, stricter bankruptcy laws went into effect.
