Re: Public Offering of Janus Investment Fund Shares
Gentlemen:
I have acted as counsel for Janus Investment Fund (the "Fund"), a
Massachusetts business trust, in connection with the filing with the Securities
and Exchange Commission of the Fund's "Rule 24f-2 Notice" covering the Fund's
issuance of 3,945,103,610 shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per
share (the "Issued Shares"), for the Fiscal Year ended October 31, 1995.
I have examined the Fund's Agreement and Declaration of Trust and Bylaws,
as amended, the proceedings of its Trustees relating to the authorization,
issuance and proposed sale of the Issued Shares, and such other records and
documents as I have deemed relevant.
Based upon such examination, it is my opinion that upon the issuance and
sale of the 3,945,103,610 Issued Shares of Janus Investment Fund during the
Fiscal Year ended October 31, 1995, in reliance upon registration pursuant to
Rule 24f-2 and the manner contemplated by the Fund's 1933 Act Registration
Statement, as amended, such shares were legally issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Rule
24f-2 Notice referred to above. This opinion is for the exclusive use of the
Fund in connection with the filing of the Rule 24f-2 Notice referred to above
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (and certain state securities
commissions) and is not to be used, circulated, quoted, relied upon or otherwise
referred to by any other person or for any other purpose.
This opinion is given as of the date hereof and I render no opinion and
disclaim any obligation to revise or supplement this opinion based upon any
change in applicable law or any factual matter that occurs or comes to my
attention after the date hereof.
Very truly yours,
/s/ David C. Tucker

Vice President & General Counsel
