Start with equipment and granted rights

Chapter 40-20 covers defined equipment dealers/suppliers, including specified industrial, maintenance, utility and grounds-care equipment. Actual products, sale/repair rights, agreement, exclusions and single-line conditions matter; using equipment or one brand does not itself settle them.

The two ordinary tracks

Specified events and performance failures have different conditions; actual reasons, comparable standards and improvement history remain necessary.

BranchOrdinary notice/correction
Sections 40-20-115/117 general regime180 days’ notice, sixty days to cure.
Section 40-20-116 single-line regimeNinety days’ notice, sixty days to cure.

Notice does not decide buyback or succession

Sections 120–121 have separate repurchase duties/exclusions. Actual property source, dates, condition, return and payment conditions determine item treatment; not every startup cost is recoverable.

Use the inventory companion for those details. Any succession request also needs its actual facts rather than an answer copied from the termination calendar.

Scope

  • Limited to the defined equipment branch, not a general Wyoming franchise exit rule. Actual performance, exception and category conditions remain necessary.

Next step

Establish the actual dealer category and proposed action before selecting the notice branch; assess inventory and succession independently.

Sources & review notes

The source records distinguish access dates from substantive review dates. Updating an explanation does not itself recheck the law.
