    CHEYENNE — The Wyoming Education Association’s lawsuit against the state for allegedly underfunding its public schools is speeding up, after a scheduled six-week bench trial ended two weeks early.

    A WEA spokesperson speculated in a text message to the Wyoming Tribune Eagle that the court moved through witness testimony faster than expected. Closing arguments were heard in a Laramie County district courtroom on June 26, and now attorneys from both parties have 60 days to assemble their findings of fact and present them before District Judge Peter H. Froelicher.
