RE: SenDx Medical, Inc.; Registration on Form S-1, Registration No. 333-3431
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule 477 of Regulation C promulgated under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, SenDx Medical, Inc. (the "Registrant") hereby requests that
its Registration Statement on Form S-1, Registration No 333-3431 (the "Form
S-1"), be withdrawn as practicable.
The reason for this request is that the proposed offering of shares of Common
Stock which were to have been covered by the Form S-1 has been abandoned by
the Registrant. No securities were issued or sold under the Registration
Statement.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please call me at
619/930-6300, or our counsel, Lawrence B. Cohn, Esq. of Stradling, Yocca,
Carlson & Rauth, at 714/725-4132
Very truly yours,
/s/ Douglas R. Hillier
