Mr. John Costello, Assistant Treasurer
Fidelity California Municipal Trust II (the trust):
Fidelity California Tax-Free Money Market Portfolio
Spartan California Municipal Money Market Portfolio (the funds)
82 Devonshire Street
Boston, Massachusetts 02109
Dear Mr. Costello:
Fidelity California Municipal Trust II is a Delaware business trust
created under a written Trust Instrument dated June 20, 1991.
I am of the opinion that all legal requirements have been complied
with in the creation of the trust and that said trust is a duly
authorized and validly existing business trust under the laws of the
State of Delaware. In this regard, I have relied on the opinion of
Delaware counsel, Morris, Nichols, Arsht & Tunnell, contained in a
letter dated April 19, 1995, with respect to matters of Delaware
law.
I have conducted such legal and factual inquiry as I have deemed
necessary for the purpose of rendering this opinion.
Capitalized terms used herein, and not otherwise herein defined, are
used as defined in the Trust Instrument.
Under Article II, Section 2.01, of the Trust Instrument, the
beneficial interest in the trust shall be divided into such transferable
Shares of one or more separate and distinct Series or classes of a
Series as the Trustees shall from time to time create and establish.
The number of Shares of each Series, and class thereof, authorized
hereunder is unlimited and each Share shall be without par value
and shall be fully paid and nonassessable.
Under Article II, Section 2.06 the Trust shall consist of one or
more Series and the Trustees shall have full power and authority, in
their sole discretion, and without obtaining any prior authorization
or vote of the Shareholders of any Series of the trust, to establish
and designate and to change in any manner any such Series of
Shares or any classes of initial or additional Series and to fix such
preferences, voting powers, rights and privileges of such Series or
classes thereof as the Trustees may from time to time determine, to
divide or combine the Shares or any Series or classes thereof into a
greater or lesser number, to classify or reclassify any issued Shares
or any Series or classes thereof into one or more Series or classes
of shares, and to take such other action with respect to the Shares
as the Trustees may deem desirable.
Under Article II, Section 2.07, the Trustees are empowered to
accept investments in any Series of the trust in cash or securities
from such persons and on such terms as they may from time to time
authorize. Such investments in a Series shall be credited to each
Shareholder's account in the form of full Shares at the Net Asset
Value per Share next determined after the investment is received;
provided, however, that the Trustees may, in their sole discretion,
fix the Net Asset Value per share of the initial capital contribution,
impose a sales charge upon investments in the trust in such manner
and at such time determined by the Trustees, or issue fractional
shares.
By a vote adopted on June 20, 1991, the Board of Trustees
authorized the issue and sale, from time to time, of an unlimited
number of shares of beneficial interest of this trust in accordance
with the terms included in the then current Registration Statement
and subject to the limitations of the Trust Instrument and any
amendments thereto.
I understand from you that, pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, the Trust has registered an
indefinite amount of shares of beneficial interest under the
Securities Act of 1933. I further understand that, pursuant to the
provisions of Rule 24f-2, the trust intends to file with the Securities
and Exchange Commission a Notice making definite the registration
of 3,510,999,731 shares of the trust (the "Shares") sold in reliance
upon Rule 24f-2 during the fiscal year ended February 28, 1995.
I am of the opinion that all necessary trust action precedent to the
issue of the Shares has been duly taken, and that all the Shares were
legally and validly issued, and are fully paid and nonassessable
under Delaware law, subject to the possibility that a court might not
apply such law as described in the Funds' Statements of Additional
Information under the heading "Shareholder and Trustee Liability -
Delaware Trust." In rendering this opinion, I rely on the
representation by the trust that it or its agent received consideration
for the Shares in accordance with the Trust Instrument and I
express no opinion as to compliance with the Securities Act of
1933, the Investment Company Act of 1940, or applicable state
"Blue Sky" or state securities laws in connection with sales of the
Shares.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and
Exchange Commission in connection with a Rule 24f-2 Notice
which you are about to file under the 1940 Act with said
commission.
Sincerely,
/s/Arthur S. Loring

Re: Fidelity California Municipal Trust II
Dear Mr. Loring:
We have acted as special Delaware counsel to Fidelity California
Municipal Trust II, a Delaware business trust (the "Trust"), in
connection with certain matters relating to the organization of the
Trust and the issuance of Shares therein. Capitalized terms used
herein and not otherwise herein defined are used as defined in the
Trust Instrument of the Trust dated June 20, 1991 (the "Governing
Instrument").
In rendering this opinion, we have examined copies of the following
documents, each in the form provided to us: the Certificate of
Trust of the Trust dated as of June 20, 1991 and filed in the Office
of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the "Recording
Office") on July 9, 1991 (the "Certificate"); the Governing
Instrument; the Bylaws of the Trust; minutes of a meeting of the
Board of Trustees of the Trust, dated June 20, 1991; a Certificate
of Secretary of the Trust, certifying as to the acceptance by certain
persons of their positions as trustees of the Trust; a Form N-8A
relating to the Trust as filed with the Commission on August 23,
1991; and a certification of good standing of the Trust obtained as
of a recent date from the Recording Office. In such examinations,
we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the conformity
to original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies or
drafts of documents to be executed, and the legal capacity of
natural persons to complete the execution of documents. We have
further assumed for the purpose of this opinion: (i) the due
authorization, execution and delivery by, or on behalf of, each of
the parties thereto of the above-referenced instruments, certificates
and other documents, and of all documents contemplated by the
Governing Instrument and applicable resolutions of the Trustees to
be executed by investors desiring to become Shareholders; (ii) the
payment of consideration for Shares, and the application of such
consideration, as provided in the Governing Instrument, and
compliance with the other terms, conditions and restrictions set
forth in the Governing Instrument and all applicable resolutions of
the Trustees in connection with the issuance of Shares (including,
without limitation, the taking of all appropriate action by the
Trustees to designate Series of Shares and the rights and
preferences attributable thereto as contemplated by the Governing
Instrument); (iii) that appropriate notation of the names and
addresses of, the number of Shares held by, and the consideration
paid by, Shareholders will be maintained in the appropriate registers
and other books and records of the Trust in connection with the
issuance or transfer of Shares; (iv) that no event has occurred
subsequent to the filing of the Certificate that would cause a
termination or dissolution of the Trust under Sections 11.04 or
11.05 of the Governing Instrument; (v) that the activities of the
Trust have been and will be conducted in accordance with the terms
of the Governing Instrument and the Delaware Act; and (vi) that
each of the documents examined by us is in full force and effect and
has not been modified, supplemented or otherwise amended. No
opinion is expressed herein with respect to the requirements of, or
compliance with, federal or state securities or blue sky laws.
Further, we have not reviewed and express no opinion on the
sufficiency or accuracy of any registration or offering
documentation relating to the Trust or the Shares. As to any facts
material to our opinion, other than those assumed, we have relied
without independent investigation on the above-referenced
documents and on the accuracy, as of the date hereof, of the
matters therein contained.
Based on and subject to the foregoing, and limited in all respects to
matters of Delaware law, it is our opinion that:
1. The Trust is a duly organized and validly existing business
trust in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.
2. The Shares, when issued to Shareholders in accordance with
the terms, conditions, requirements and procedures set forth in the
Governing Instrument, will constitute legally issued, fully paid and
non-assessable Shares of beneficial interest in the Trust.
3. Under the Delaware Act and the terms of the Governing
Instrument, each Shareholder of the Trust, in such capacity, will be
entitled to the same limitation of personal liability as that extended
to stockholders of private corporations for profit; provided,
however, that we express no opinion with respect to the liability of
any Shareholder who is, was or may become a named Trustee of
the Trust. Neither the existence nor exercise of the voting rights
granted to Shareholders under the Governing Instrument will, of
itself, cause a Shareholder to be deemed a trustee of the Trust
under the Delaware Act.
We understand that you wish to rely as to matters of Delaware law
on the opinion set forth above in connection with the rendering by
you of an opinion to be used as an Exhibit to a Rule 24f-2 filing to
be made by the Trust with the Commission, and we hereby consent
to such reliance. Except as provided in the foregoing sentence, the
opinion set forth above is expressed solely for the benefit of the
addressee hereof and may not be relied upon by any other person or
entity for any purpose without our prior written consent.
Sincerely,
/s/MORRIS, NICHOLS, ARSHT & TUNNELL
