Abstract: We prove Cordes type estimates for subelliptic linear partial differential operators in non-divergence form with measurable coefficients in the Heisenberg group. As an application we establish interior horizontal $W^{2,2}$-regularity for p-harmonic functions in the Heisenberg group ${\mathbb H}^1$ for the range $\frac{\sqrt{17}-1}{2} \leq p < \frac{5+\sqrt{5}}{2}$.
