Dear Sirs:
In connection with the public offering of shares of beneficial
interest, $.01 par value, of Dean Witter Multi-State Municipal
Series Trust (the "Fund"), I have examined such corporate records
and documents and have made such further investigation and
examination as I have deemed necessary for the purpose of this
opinion.
It is my opinion, as Legal Counsel for the Fund, that the
Fund is a business trust duly organized and validly existing under
the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and that the shares
of beneficial interest covered by the Rule 24f-2 Notice, dated
January 12, 1994 (File No. 811-6208), were issued and paid for in
accordance with the terms of the offering, as set forth in the
prospectus filed as part of the Registration Statement, as amended,
of the Trust and were legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable
by the Trust.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit
to the Notice pursuant to Rule 24f-2. In giving this consent, I
do not thereby admit that I am within the category of persons whose
consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, or the rules and requisitions of the Securities and
Exchange Commission thereunder.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Sheldon Curtis
