This is an appeal from an order of the district court upholding the rules of the Wyoming Supreme Court which required that an attorney be a resident of the State of Wyoming in order to be eligible for admission to the bar on motion instead of by taking a bar examination, 659 F.Supp. 207 (1987). Plaintiff Sommermeyer challenges the residency requirement on the grounds that it violates the privileges and immunities clause of article 4, section 2 of the federal constitution. In our view this case is controlled by the recent United States Supreme Court decision in Supreme Court of Virginia v. Friedman, — U.S. -, 108 S.Ct. 2260, 101 L.Ed.2d 56 (1988). Based upon that decision we hold that Wyoming Supreme Court Rule 5(c) is unconstitutional, and REVERSE and REMAND to the district court with instructions to enter an order directing that the appropriate official in the State of Wyoming admit plaintiff to the bar of the state.
