Ladies and Gentlemen:
In connection with the public offering of shares of beneficial interest,
no par value (the "Shares") of Oppenheimer California Municipal Fund (the
"Fund"), we have examined such records and documents and have made such further
investigation and examination as we deemed necessary
for the purpose of this opinion.
It is our opinion that the Shares, the registration of which is made
definite by the accompanying Rule 24f-2 Notice of the Fund, were legally issued,
fully paid and non-assessable by the Fund to the extent set forth in its
Prospectus forming part of its Registration Statement under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with said Notice.
Very truly yours,
/s/GORDON ALTMAN BUTOWSKY
