Re: Rule 24f-2 Notice
Gentlemen:
In connection with the filing by Smith Barney New Jersey
Municipals Fund Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Fund"),
of a Notice (the "Notice"), pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), for
the Fund's fiscal year ended March 31, 1996, the undersigned
hereby provides the legal opinion required by that Rule.
In accordance with Rule 24f-2, the Fund has registered
an indefinite number of shares of common stock, $0.001 par
value, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"1933 Act"). The purpose of the Notice is to make definite
the registration of 6,566,728 shares of the Fund (the
"Shares") sold in reliance upon the Rule during the fiscal
year ended March 31, 1996.
The undersigned is Associate General Counsel of Smith
Barney Mutual Funds Management Inc., the Fund's
administrator, and in such capacity, from time to time and
for certain purposes, acts as counsel to the Fund. She has
examined copies of the Fund's Articles of Incorporation, its
By-Laws, resolutions adopted by its Board of Directors, and
such other records and documents as have been deemed
necessary for purposes of this opinion. Furthermore, she
has examined a Certificate of the Controller of the Fund to
the effect that the Fund received the cash consideration for
each of the Shares in accordance with the aforementioned
organizational documents and resolutions.
On the basis of the foregoing, and assuming all of the
Shares were sold in accordance with the terms of the Fund's
Prospectus in effect at the time of sale, she is of the
opinion that the Shares have been duly authorized and
validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable. This
opinion is for the limited purposes expressed above and
should not be deemed to be an expression of opinion as to
compliance with the 1933 Act, the 1940 Act or applicable
State "blue sky" laws in connection with the sales of the
Shares.
Very truly yours,
Caren Cunningham
Associate General
Counsel
of Smith Barney
Mutual Funds
Management Inc.
