Re: Rule 24f-2 Notice for MetLife - State Street Financial Trust
Securities Act of 1933 Registration No. 33-10327
Investment Company Act of 1940 File No. 811-4911
Gentlemen:
As counsel to MetLife - State Street Financial Trust (the "Trust"), we have
been requested to render this opinion in connection with the filing by the Trust
of a Rule 24f-2 Notice with respect to its fiscal year ended October 31, 1995.
Reference is made to paragraph 10 of such Notice wherein the Trust reports
the number of shares (the "Shares") representing interests in the State Street
Research Government Income Fund, State Street Research Strategic Portfolios:
Conservative, State Street Research Strategic Portfolios: Moderate and State
Street Research Strategic Portfolios: Aggressive series of the Trust sold during
the fiscal year ended October 31, 1995, in reliance upon Rule 24f-2 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
We have examined the Trust's First Amended and Restated Master Trust
Agreement dated June 1, 1993, as amended, the By-Laws of the Trust, as amended,
the Rule 24f-2 Notice of the Trust dated December 21, 1995, certain resolutions
adopted by the Trustees of the Trust, and such other documents as we deemed
necessary for purposes of this opinion.
We are attorneys admitted to practice in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
We express no opinion concerning the laws of any jurisdiction other than the
laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
Based upon the foregoing, and assuming that all of the Shares were sold,
issued and paid for in accordance with the terms of the applicable Prospectus
and Statement of Additional Information contained in the Trust's Registration
Statement on Form N-1A in effect at the time of sale, in our opinion the shares
were legally issued and fully paid and non-assessable by the Trust.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Goodwin, Procter & Hoar
