Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.


On October 9, 2007, our Audit Committee of the Board of Directors dismissed Malone & Bailey, PC (“Malone”) as its independent registered public accounting firm.


Malone’s reports on our financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except for concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern.


During our most recent fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, and through October 9, 2007, there were no disagreements between the Company and Malone on any manner of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Malone, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report on our financial statements for such years.


None of the reportable events described under Item 304(a)(1)(iv)(B) of Regulation S-B occurred within the most recent fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, or within the interim period through October 9, 2007.


We provided Malone with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and requested Malone to furnish a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees with the statements made above.  Attached, as Exhibit 16.2, is a copy of Malone’s letter to the SEC, dated October 10, 2007 stating its agreement with such statements.


On October 9, 2007, GBH CPAs, PC (“GBH”) was appointed as the new independent registered public accounting firm for Lucas Energy, Inc.  The decision to appoint GBH was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.  During Lucas Energy, Inc.’s most recent fiscal year ending December 31, 2006, and through October 9, 2007, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with GBH regarding any matters or events set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-B.


The audit partner from GBH assigned to our account was previously the audit partner at Malone.  We considered the continuity of the audit partner to be a significant factor in the decision to change our independent registered public accounting firm.
