Re:  Rule 24f-2 Notice for Municipal Fund for Temporary Investment,
     MuniFund, MuniCash and Intermediate 
     Municipal Fund (Registration No. 2-64358)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel for Municipal Fund for Temporary Investment, a
Pennsylvania common law trust (the "Company"), and have been informed by
the Company of the registration during the Company's fiscal year ended
November 30, 1996, pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, of 4,113,896,114 shares of beneficial interest ("Shares") in the
Company's MuniFund portfolio ("MuniFund Portfolio Shares") and 4,563,245,382
Shares in the Company's MuniCash portfolio ("MuniCash Portfolio Shares")
(collectively hereinafter referred to as "Portfolio Shares") under the
Securities Act of 1933.  The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited
number of Portfolio Shares, without par value.

We have reviewed the Company's Declaration of Trust, as amended, its By-Laws,
resolutions adopted by its Board of Trustees and shareholders, the Company's
Rule 24f-2 Notice dated January 21, 1997 and such other legal and factual
matters as we have deemed appropriate.

On the basis of the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the
aforementioned Portfolio Shares registered pursuant to Rule 24f-2 were,
when issued for payment as described in the Company's Prospectuses,
validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable by the Company.

Under Pennsylvania law, shareholders could, under certain circumstances, be
held personally liable for the obligations of the Company.  However, the
Declaration of Trust disclaims shareholder liability for acts or obligations
of the Company and requires that notice of such disclaimer be given in any
written agreement, undertaking or obligation made or issued on behalf of the
Company.  The Declaration of Trust provides for indemnification out of the
assets of the Company for all loss and expense of any shareholder held
personally liable solely by reason of his or her being or having been a
shareholder.  Thus, the risk of a shareholder's incurring financial loss on
account of shareholder liability is limited to circumstances in which the
Company itself would be unable to meet its obligations.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and
Exchange Commission as part of the Company's Rule 24f-2 Notice.

Very truly yours,
