Rochester Portfolio Series
Limited Term New York Municipal Fund - Class A

Rochester, New York 14625
Re: Rule 24f-2 Notice
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Rochester Portfolio Series (the "Trust") is a trust organized
under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. We understand
that the Trust, on behalf of the Limited Term New York Municipal
Fund ("Fund"), is about to file a Rule 24f-2 Notice pursuant to
Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
("1940 Act") for the purpose of making definite the number of Class
A Shares which it has registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended ("1933 Act"), and which it sold during its fiscal year
ended December 31, 1995.
We have, as counsel, participated in various business and
other matters relating to the Trust. We have examined copies,
either certified or otherwise proved to be genuine, of its
Declaration of Trust and By-Laws, as now in effect, and certain
other documents and certificates of officers and representatives of
the Trust relating to its organization and operation, and we
generally are familiar with its business affairs. Based on the
foregoing, it is our opinion that the Class A Shares sold by the
Fund during the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995, the
registration of which will be made definite by the filing of a Rule
24f-2 Notice, were legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
We express no opinion as to compliance with the 1933 Act, the
1940 Act, or applicable state securities laws in connection with
the sale of the Fund's Class A Shares.
The Trust is an entity of the type commonly known as a
"Massachusetts business trust." Under Massachusetts law,
shareholders could, under certain circumstances, be held personally
liable for the obligations of the Trust. The Amended and Restated
Declaration of Trust states that creditors of, contractors with and
claimants against the Trust shall look only to the assets of the
Trust for payment. It also requires that notice of such disclaimer
be given in each contract or instrument made or issued by the
officers or the Trustees of the Trust on behalf of the Trust. The
Declaration of Trust further provides: (i) for indemnification
from Trust assets for all loss and expense of any shareholder held
personally liable for the obligations of the Trust by virtue of
ownership of Shares of the Trust; and (ii) for the Trust to assume
the defense of any claim against the shareholder for any act or
obligation of the Trust. Thus, the risk of a shareholder incurring
financial loss on account of shareholder liability is limited to
circumstances in which the Trust would be unable to meet its
obligations.
We hereby consent to this opinion accompanying the Rule 24f-2
Notice which you are about to file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. We also consent to the reference to our firm in the
prospectus filed as part of the Trust's registration statement.
Very truly yours,
KIRKPATRICK & LOCKHART LLP
