Re:

Form AW — Withdrawal of Tri-S Security Corporation’s Post Effective Amendment No.1 to Registration Statement on Form S-1 on Form S-3/A (No. 333-131468) filed on July 6, 2006.

 

Ladies and Gentleman:

 

Pursuant to Rules 477 and 478 promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in accordance with discussions held between counsel for Tri-S Security Corporation (“Tri-S Security”) and the Staff of the Division of Corporation Finance, Tri-S Security hereby respectfully requests withdrawal of the above referenced post-effective amendment.  After discussions with the Staff, it is Tri-S Security’s understanding that the “Flag” which was used for Edgar identification purposes incorrectly identified the above referenced filing as a pre-effective amendment, rather than a post-effective amendment.  As discussed with the Staff, as soon as practicable following the filing of this Form AW, Tri-S Security will file Post-Effective Amendment No.1 to Registration Statement on Form S-1 on Form S-3/A (No. 333-131468) with the proper Edgar “Flag” identifying it as a post-effective amendment.

 

Tri-S Security confirms that no securities have been issued or sold pursuant to the post-effective amendment filed on July 6, 2006.

 

If you have any questions regarding the foregoing request for withdrawal, please contact Lori A. Gelchion with Rogers & Hardin LLP, counsel to Tri-S Security Corporation, at (404) 420-4646.

 

 

				Sincerely,
				TRI-S SECURITY CORPORATION
