Comment:

The Interstate Compact for Supervision of Parolees and Probationers, enacted in 1939, has been superseded by the Interstate Compact for Adult Offender Supervision, which was enacted into law by 2001 Wyoming Session Laws, Chapter 71.  Section 2 of Chapter 71 made the latter Compact effective on July 1, 2001, or upon enactment by the 35th jurisdiction, whichever occurred later.  The Compact was ratified by the 35th state on June 19, 2002, thereby making the earlier Compact obsolete.
