SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


In the Matter of Midwest Oil and Gas, Inc., File No. 500-1; Order 
of Suspension of Trading

May 9, 2016.
    It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission that the 
public interest and the protection of investors require a suspension of 
trading in the securities of Midwest Oil and Gas, Inc. (CIK No. 
1486315) because of recent, unusual and unexplained market activity in 
the company's stock taking place during a suspicious promotional 
campaign. Midwest Oil and Gas, Inc. is a Nevada corporation with its 
principal executive offices in Payson, Arizona, with stock quoted on 
OTC Link (previously ``Pinks Sheets'') operated by OTC Markets Group, 
Inc. under the ticker symbol MWOG.
    THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to Section 12(k) of the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that trading in the securities of the 
above-listed company is suspended for the period from 9:30 a.m. EDT on 
May 9, 2016, through 11:59 p.m. EDT on May 20, 2016.

    By the Commission.
Lynn M. Powalski,
Deputy Secretary.
