[font size=5]Breaking news: Cheney pays $220 for fishing license ticket[/font]


U.S. Senate candidate Elizabeth Lynne Cheney posted a $220 bond in Ninth Circuit Court in Teton County on Monday on a charge of making a false statement to procure a fishing license.

A citation/complaint ticket in the court file states that Cheney “fail(ed) to meet residency requirements as required,” according to the ticket signed by Wyoming Game and Fish Jackson Supervisor Tim Fuchs.

The citation alleges the infraction took place on or about 9:18 a.m. Aug. 3, 2012 at West Bank Anglers near Teton Village.

The infraction would violate Wyoming statute 23-3-403 (a), according to the ticket. That statute reads, “No person shall procure or attempt to procure any license or tag under this act by false swearing, fraud, or false statement of any kind or in any form.” Violation constitutes a high misdemeanor. ....

Wyoming resident fishing and game licenses require the purchaser to sign a residency statement. It says “Under penalty of prosecution I swear that the information given by me above and below my signature is true and correct. I swear under penalty of prosecution that I am a Wyoming resident as defined in WS 23-1-102 (a)... and have domiciled in Wyoming for not less than one(1) year and have not claimed residence anywhere for any purpose during the one year immediately preceding the purchase of this license.”

She has said that she did not know one was required to live in Wyoming for the immediately previous 365 days to qualify as a resident. She said she never told the clerk who sold the license she lived in the state for 10 years, although the clerk marked her application “10” under the category of years of residency.
