Division of Corporation Finance

Re:

Wentworth Energy, Inc.
Incoming letter dated March 11, 2010

Based on the facts presented, the Division will not object if Wentworth Energy stops filing periodic and current reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. In reaching this position, we note that Wentworth Energy has filed post-effective amendments removing from registration unsold securities under all effective registration statements on Forms S-8, and those post-effective amendments are effective. We assume that, consistent with the representations made in your letter, Wentworth Energy will file a certification on Form 15 making appropriate claims under Exchange Act Rules 12g-4 and 12h-3 on or before the due date of its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

This position is based on the representations made to the Division in your letter. Any different facts or conditions might require the Division to reach a different conclusion. Further, this response expresses the Division’s position on enforcement action only and does not express any legal conclusion on the question presented.

Sincerely,

Ted Yu
Special Counsel
