Dear Mr. Edwards:
Pursuant to Rule 461 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Nemus Bioscience, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby respectfully requests acceleration of the effective date of its Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-223895) (the “Registration Statement”). We respectfully request that the Registration Statement become effective as of 4:30 p.m., Eastern Time, on April 16, 2018, or as soon as practicable thereafter.
Once the Registration Statement has been declared effective, please orally confirm that event with our outside legal counsel, Greenberg Traurig, LLP, by calling Mark C. Lee at (916) 442-1111.
The Company acknowledges the following:
· |
should the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) or the staff of the Commission (the “Staff”), acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing; | |
| ||
· |
the action of the Commission or the Staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the Company from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and | |
| ||
· |
the Company may not assert Staff comments and the declaration of effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States. |
Thank you for your assistance with this matter. If you have any questions regarding the foregoing, please do not hesitate to contact Mark C. Lee of Greenberg Traurig, LLP at (916) 442-1111.
Sincerely,
Nemus Bioscience, Inc.
