Treble Damages in Wyoming

Wyoming allows a court to award up to three times the actual damages suffered in an antitrust case, but the decision to treble is discretionary. Under Wyo. Stat. § 40-13-110, a prevailing plaintiff may recover actual damages, and the court may increase that award up to three times the actual amount. The statute does not mandate automatic trebling; instead, it gives the judge authority to multiply the actual damages by up to three based on the circumstances. The official text at the Wyoming Legislature’s website sets out the factors guiding that discretion. The worked example below illustrates how a court applies the multiplier. To estimate your own potential award, use the DocketMath calculator with your specific actual damages.
