The Wyoming Waiver of Indictment is the process by which an individual accused of a crime can waive his or her right to a grand jury indictment and enter a plea of guilty or no contest in exchange for a lesser charge or sentence. This process is used in criminal cases where the accused has been charged with a felony offense. There are three different types of Wyoming Waiver of Indictment: voluntary, involuntary, and deferred. A voluntary waiver is entered after discussions between the accused and the prosecutor and/or judge, and is an agreement between the two parties. An involuntary waiver is entered when the accused is unable to reach an agreement with the prosecutor and/or judge, and thus has to waive his or her right to a grand jury indictment. A deferred waiver is entered when the accused agrees to enter a plea of guilty or no contest at a later date, after the grand jury has heard the case.
