Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On May 27, 2016, Comstock Resources, Inc. ("Comstock" or "the Company"), issued a press release, attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K, announcing that the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") has notified the Company that it has accepted Comstock's business plan for continued listing on the NYSE.

As a result of this acceptance, Comstock's common stock will continue to be listed on the NYSE pending quarterly reviews by the NYSE's Listing and Compliance Committee to ensure the Company's progress towards its plan to restore compliance with all NYSE continued listing standards.

On March 30, 2016, the Company announced that the NYSE had notified Comstock that it was considered below certain continued listing standards, namely that the Company's average stock price had traded below $1.00 per share and its average market capitalization was less than $50 million, in each case for over a consecutive 30 day trading period, and its stockholders' equity was less than $50 million.

The information contained in this Form 8-K and the Exhibit attached hereto shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
