Templeton Global Opportunities Trust
700 Central Avenue
St. Petersburg, Florida  33701

Dear Sir or Madam:

         As counsel  for  Templeton  Global  Opportunities  Trust (the  "Trust")
during the  fiscal  year ended  December  31,  1995,  we are  familiar  with the
registration  of the Trust  under the  Investment  Company Act of 1940 (File No.
811-5914) and the  registration  statement  relating to its shares of beneficial
interest (the "Shares") under the Securities Act of 1933 (File No. 33-31267). We
also  have  examined  such  other  Trust  records,  agreements,   documents  and
instruments as we deemed appropriate.

         Based upon the  foregoing,  it is our opinion that the Shares have been
duly and validly  authorized and issued as fully paid, and are non-assessable by
the Trust.

         We consent to the filing of this opinion in connection  with the Notice
for the fiscal year ended  December  31,  1995  pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the
Investment  Company  Act of 1940 to be filed on  behalf  of the  Trust  with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

                                      Very truly yours,

                                     /s/ Dechert Price & Rhoads
