Wyo. Stat. Ann. § 5-6-110
in effectWhen a person is ordered by the municipal judge to enter into a recognizance, he may at the discretion of the municipal judge be permitted to sign his own recognizance, furnish sureties or deposit in cash with the judge or his designee the amount named in the bond. If the person so recognized fails to appear and comply with all of the requirements of the bond, the judge having cognizance shall, if there are no mitigating circumstances, declare the bond forfeited and order the cash deposited into the general fund of the treasury of the city. If it appears to the judge the accused is triable for an offense not cognizable before the judge, the judge shall halt further proceedings and proceed as in other cases exclusively cognizable before the district court.
