Re: Rule 24f-2 Notice for Portico Funds, Inc. Registration No.
33-18255
Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel for Portico Funds, Inc., a Wisconsin
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the registration
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of shares of the
Company's Common Stock, representing interests in the Company's
Money Market Fund, Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund, U.S. Government
Money Market Fund, Institutional Money Market Fund, U.S.
Treasury Money Market Fund, Special Growth Fund, Bond IMMDEX
Fund, Equity Index Fund, Growth and Income Fund, Short-Term Bond
Market Fund, Balanced Fund, MidCore Growth Fund, Intermediate
Bond Market Fund, Tax-Exempt Intermediate Bond Fund, and
International Equity Fund, made definite in number by the
Company's Rule 24f-2 Notice for the fiscal year ended October
31, 1995 (collectively, the "Shares").
In giving the opinion stated below, we have reviewed the
Company's Articles of Incorporation, as amended, By-Laws, as
amended, resolutions adopted by its Board of Directors and
shareholders, and such other legal and factual matters as we
have deemed appropriate. In addition, we have relied on the
opinion of Foley & Lardner, dated December 20, 1995, as to all
matters of Wisconsin law.
On the basis of the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the
Shares, when issued for payment as described in the Company's
prospectuses, were legally issued, fully paid, and
non-assessable, except as provided in Section 180.0622(2)(b) of
the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law, as amended, which in
general provides for personal liability on the part of a
corporation's shareholders for unpaid wages of the corporation's
employees.
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,
/s/ DRINKER BIDDLE & REATH
