PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although there have been some positive market indications so far in 1995,
no one can predict what lies ahead for investors. Last year, stocks posted
below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in history. This
downturn followed a period in which the investing environment was almost
ideal.
These market ups and downs are a normal part of investing, and there are
some basic principles that can help investors in every type of market.
First, take a long-term approach when investing. If you can afford to leave
your money invested through the inevitable ups and downs of financial
markets, you will greatly reduce your vulnerability to any single decline.
Over time, for example, stock prices have gone up - and have significantly
outperformed other types of investments and stayed ahead of inflation.
Second, you can further manage risk by diversifying your investments. A
stock mutual fund is already diversified, because it invests in many
different companies. You can increase your diversification by investing in
a number of different stock funds, or in different investment categories,
such as bonds. You should also keep money you'll need in the near future in
a more stable investment.
Finally, it makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing
a set amount of money at the same time each month or quarter. That way, you
can avoid getting caught up in the excitement of a rapidly-rising market -
and won't end up buying all your shares at market highs. This strategy
won't assure a profit or protect you from a loss in a declining market, but
it should help you lower the average cost of your purchases. For this to be
effective, you must continue to buy shares in both up and down markets.
If you have questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We would be happy
to send you a Fidelity FundMatch kit, which can help you determine the mix
of investments that is right for you. You might also find it convenient to
set up a regular investment plan using the Fidelity Automatic Account
Builder.SM
We look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
To measure a money market fund's performance, you can look at either total
return or yield. Total return reflects the change in a fund's share price
over a given period and reinvestment of its dividends (or income). Yield
measures the income paid by a fund. Since a money market fund tries to
maintain a $1 share price, yield is an important measure of performance. If
Fidelity had not reimbursed certain fund expenses, the past 5 years and the
life of fund total returns would have been lower.

CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, six months, one year, five years, or
since the fund started on March 17, 1988. For example, if you invested
$1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your
investment would be $1,050. To measure how the fund's performance stacked
up against its peers, you can compare it to the average New Jersey tax-free
money market fund, which reflects the performance of 11 New Jersey tax-free
money market funds with similar objectives tracked by IBC/Donoghue over the
past six months. Comparing the fund's performance to the consumer price
index (CPI) helps show how your investment did compared to inflation. (The
periods covered by the CPI and IBC/Donoghue numbers are the closest
available match to those covered by the fund.)

YIELD refers to the income paid by the fund over a given period. Yields for
money market funds are usually for seven-day periods, expressed as annual
percentage rates. A yield that assumes income earned is reinvested or
compounded is called an effective yield. The chart above shows the fund's
current seven-day yield at quarterly intervals over the past year. You can
compare these yields to the average New Jersey tax-free money market fund.
Or you can look at the fund's tax-equivalent yield, which is based on a
combined effective 1995 federal and state income tax rate of 40.21%.
Figures for the average New Jersey tax-free money market fund are from
IBC/Donoghue.
A MONEY MARKET FUND'S TOTAL RETURNS AND YIELDS WILL VARY, AND REFLECT PAST
RESULTS RATHER THAN PREDICT FUTURE PERFORMANCE.
COMPARING
PERFORMANCE
Yields on tax-free investments
are usually lower than yields
on taxable investments.
However, a straight
comparison between the two
may be misleading because it
ignores the way taxes reduce
taxable returns. Tax-equivalent
yield - the yield you'd have to
earn on a similar taxable
investment to match the
tax-free yield - makes the
comparison more meaningful.
Keep in mind that the U.S.
government neither insures nor
guarantees a money market
fund. And there is no
assurance that a money fund
will maintain a $1 share price.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
NOTE TO SHAREHOLDERS:
On June 1, 1995, Jeff Parker
(left) became portfolio manager of
Fidelity New Jersey Tax-Free Money Market Portfolio. The following is an
interview with Scott Orr -
who managed the fund during the period covered by this report - with some
comments from Jeff Parker
on his outlook and strategy:
Q. SCOTT, CAN YOU TELL US HOW THE INVESTMENT CLIMATE HAS CHANGED DURING THE
PAST SIX MONTHS?
S.O. Sure. Conditions on the whole were calmer and more predictable than
they were during most of 1994. The Federal Reserve raised the federal funds
rate - the rate banks charge each other for overnight loans - one-half
percentage point in February. However, unlike most of the six other rate
increases that had come before, the February rate increase was widely
anticipated, and the market absorbed it smoothly. In fact, following the
Fed announcement, short-term rates actually declined.
Q. HAVE RATES PEAKED, THEN?
S.O. That's quite possible. The goal of Fed policy ever since it began
raising short-term interest rates in February 1994 has been to dampen the
gross domestic product growth rate and prevent an outbreak of inflation.
Apparently, the policy has worked. In April, the first-quarter growth rate
came in at a surprisingly low 2.8%. That marked a dramatic slowdown from
the robust 5.2% growth rate during the fourth quarter of 1994. The pattern
of slower growth persisted throughout the spring. By the end of the period,
it seemed highly unlikely that the Fed would see the need to raise rates
again anytime soon.
Q. WHAT WAS YOUR STRATEGY DURING THE PERIOD?
Hardcopy of
Photo of
JEFF PARKER
to come
from WTC
S.O. When the period began, the fund's average maturity was around 60 days.
Later in the month of December, after Orange County, California, declared
bankruptcy, many investors - even across the country in New Jersey -
responded to the news by becoming more defensive and buying shorter-term
securities. I saw that as an opportunity to make prudent purchases of
longer-term securities, extending the fund's average maturity to 64 days at
the end of the month. By early February, when the Fed raised rates for the
last time, I had let it roll back down to the high 50s. At the end of May,
the fund's average maturity was 56 days.
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
S.O. The fund's seven-day yield on May 31, 1995 was 3.49%, compared to
3.09% six months ago. On an after-tax basis, that was the equivalent of a
5.84% taxable rate for investors in the 40.21% combined federal and state
income tax bracket. Through May 31, 1995, the fund's six-month total return
was 1.70%, compared to 1.65% for the average tax-exempt money market fund,
according to IBC/Donoghue.
Q. JEFF, WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
J.P. There's been a dramatic shift in market psychology in recent months.
Early this year, many economists were predicting that the Fed would go
right on raising interest rates through the summer. However, the economy
has slowed, and now most economists believe it's only a matter of time
before the Fed begins lowering rates. With that in mind, I'll probably
maintain some flexibility while looking for opportunities to gradually
extend the fund's average maturity in the months ahead.

WORDS TO KNOW
COMMERCIAL PAPER: A security
issued by a municipality to
finance capital or operating
needs.
FEDERAL FUNDS RATE: The interest
rate banks charge each other
for overnight loans.
MATURITY: The time remaining
before an issuer is scheduled
to repay the principal amount
on a debt security. When the
fund's average maturity -
weighted by dollar amount -
is short, the fund manager is
anticipating a rise in interest
rates. When the average
maturity is long, the manager
is expecting rates to fall.
When the average maturity is
neutral, the manager wants
the flexibility to respond to
rising rates, while still
capturing a portion of the
higher yields available from
issues with longer maturities.
MUNICIPAL NOTE: A security
issued in advance of future
tax or other revenues and
payable from those specific
sources.
TENDER BOND: A variable-rate,
usually long-term security that
gives the bond holder the
option to redeem the bond at
face value before maturity.
VARIABLE RATE DEMAND NOTE
(VRDN): A tender bond that
can be redeemed on short
notice, typically one or seven
days. VRDNs are useful in
managing the fund's average
maturity and liquidity.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended May 31, 1995 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES.
Fidelity New Jersey Tax-Free Money Market Portfolio (the fund) is a fund of
Fidelity Court Street Trust II (the trust) and is authorized to issue an
unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management
investment company organized as a Delaware business trust. The following
summarizes the significant accounting policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. As permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, and
certain conditions therein, securities are valued initially at cost and
thereafter assume a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or
premium.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for
its fiscal year. The schedule of investments includes information regarding
income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INTEREST INCOME. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium
and accretion of original issue discount, is accrued as earned. Accretion
of market discount represents unrealized gain until realized at the time of
a security disposition or maturity.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between
the funds in the trust.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends are declared daily and paid
monthly from net interest income.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade
date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
2. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, Fidelity Management &
Research Company (FMR) receives a monthly fee that is calculated on the
basis of a group fee rate plus a fixed individual fund fee rate applied to
the average net assets of the fund. The group fee rate is the weighted
average of a series of rates and is based on the monthly average net assets
of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .1200% to
.3700% for the period. In the event that these rates were lower than the
contractual rates in effect during the period, FMR voluntarily implemented
the above rates, as they resulted in the same or a lower management fee.
The annual individual fund fee rate is .25%. For the period, the management
fee was equivalent to an annualized rate of .41% of average net assets.
SUB-ADVISER FEE. As the fund's investment sub-adviser, FMR Texas Inc., a
wholly owned subsidiary of FMR, receives a fee from FMR of 50% of the
management fee payable to FMR. The fee is paid prior to any voluntary
expense reimbursements which may be in effect, and after reducing the fee
for any
payments by FMR pursuant to the fund's Distribution and Service Plan.
2. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN. Pursuant to the Distribution and Service
Plan (the Plan), and in accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, FMR or
the fund's distributor, Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an
affiliate of FMR, may use their resources to pay administrative and
promotional expenses related to the sale of the fund's shares. Subject to
the approval of the Board of Trustees, the Plan also authorizes payments to
third parties that assist in the sale of the fund's shares or render
shareholder support services. FMR or FDC has informed the fund that
payments made to third parties under the Plan amounted to $39,704 for the
period.
TRANSFER AGENT AND ACCOUNTING FEES. UMB Bank, n.a. (the Bank) is the
custodian and transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the fund. The
Bank has entered into a sub-contract with Fidelity Service Co. (FSC), an
affiliate of FMR, under which FSC performs the activities associated with
the fund's transfer and shareholder servicing agent and accounting
functions. During the period December 1, 1994 to December 31, 1994, the
fund paid fees based on the type, size, number of accounts and the number
of transactions made by shareholders. Effective January 1, 1995, the Board
of Trustees approved a revised transfer agent contract pursuant to which
the fund pays account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to
account size and type of account. FSC pays for typesetting, printing and
mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy statements. The accounting
fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month plus
out-of-pocket expenses. For the period, FSC received transfer agent and
accounting fees amounting to $377,227 and $43,488, respectively.
Shareholders participating in the Fidelity Ultra Service Account(registered
trademark) Program (the Program) pay a $5.00 monthly fee to Fidelity
Brokerage Services, Inc. (FBSI), an affiliate of FMR, for performing
services associated with the Program. For the period, fees paid to FBSI by
shareholders participating in the Program amounted to $29,805.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although there have been some positive market indications so far in 1995,
no one can predict what lies ahead for investors. Last year, stocks posted
below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in history. This
downturn followed a period in which the investing environment was almost
ideal.
These market ups and downs are a normal part of investing, and there are
some basic principles that can help investors in every type of market.
First, take a long-term approach when investing. If you can afford to leave
your money invested through the inevitable ups and downs of financial
markets, you will greatly reduce your vulnerability to any single decline.
Over time, for example, stock prices have gone up - and have significantly
outperformed other types of investments and stayed ahead of inflation.
Second, you can further manage risk by diversifying your investments. A
stock mutual fund is already diversified, because it invests in many
different companies. You can increase your diversification by investing in
a number of different stock funds, or in different investment categories,
such as bonds. You should also keep money you'll need in the near future in
a more stable investment.
Finally, it makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing
a set amount of money at the same time each month or quarter. That way, you
can avoid getting caught up in the excitement of a rapidly-rising market -
and won't end up buying all your shares at market highs. This strategy
won't assure a profit or protect you from a loss in a declining market, but
it should help you lower the average cost of your purchases. For this to be
effective, you must continue to buy shares in both up and down markets.
If you have questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We would be happy
to send you a Fidelity FundMatch kit, which can help you determine the mix
of investments that is right for you. You might also find it convenient to
set up a regular investment plan using the Fidelity Automatic Account
Builder.SM
We look forward to hearing from you.

PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
To measure a money market fund's performance, you can look at either total
return or yield. Total return reflects the change in a fund's share price
over a given period and reinvestment of its dividends (or income). Yield
measures the income paid by a fund. Since a money market fund tries to
maintain a $1 share price, yield is an important measure of performance. If
Fidelity had not reimbursed certain fund expenses, the past five years and
life of fund total returns would have been lower.

Money Market Fund 1.61% 2.83% 15.32% n/a
Consumer Price Index 1.53% 3.19% 17.80% 22.15%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, six months, one year, five years or since
the fund started on August 29, 1989. For example, if you invested $1,000 in
a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your
investment would be $1,050. To measure how the fund's performance stacked
up against its peers, you can compare it to the average Connecticut
tax-free money market fund, which reflects the performance of 12 funds with
similar objectives tracked by IBC/Donoghue over the past six months.
Comparing the fund's performance to the consumer price index (CPI) helps
show how your fund did compared to inflation. (The periods covered by the
CPI and IBC/Donoghue numbers are the closest available match to those
covered by the fund.)

YIELD refers to the income paid by the fund over a given period. Yields for
money market funds are usually for seven-day periods, expressed as annual
percentage rates. A yield that assumes income earned is reinvested or
compounded is called an effective yield. The chart above shows the fund's
current seven-day yield at quarterly intervals over the past year. You can
compare these yields to the average Connecticut tax-free money market fund.
Or you can look at the fund's tax-equivalent yield, which is based on a
combined effective 1995 federal and state income tax rate of 38.88% and
reflects that a portion of the fund's income was subject to state taxes. A
portion of the fund's income may be subject to the alternative minimum tax.
A MONEY MARKET FUND'S TOTAL RETURNS AND YIELDS WILL VARY, AND REFLECT PAST
RESULTS RATHER THAN PREDICT FUTURE PERFORMANCE.
COMPARING
PERFORMANCE
Yields on tax-free investments
are usually lower than yields on
taxable investments.
However, a straight
comparison between the two
may be misleading because it
ignores the way taxes reduce
taxable returns.
Tax-equivalent yield - the
yield you'd have to earn on a
similar taxable investment to
match the tax-free yield -
makes the comparison more
meaningful. Keep in mind that
the U.S. government neither
insures nor guarantees a
money market fund. In fact,
there is no assurance that a
money market fund will
maintain a $1 share price.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
NOTE TO SHAREHOLDERS:
On June 1, 1995, Jeff Parker
(left) became portfolio manager of
Fidelity Connecticut Tax-Free Money Market Portfolio. The following is an
interview with Scott Orr -
who managed the fund during the period covered by this report - with some
comments from Jeff Parker
on his outlook and strategy:
Q. SCOTT, CAN YOU TELL US HOW THE INVESTMENT CLIMATE HAS CHANGED DURING THE
PAST SIX MONTHS?
S.O. Sure. Conditions on the whole were calmer and more predictable than
they were during most of 1994. The Federal Reserve raised the federal funds
rate - the rate banks charge each other for overnight loans - one-half
percentage point in February. However, unlike most of the six other rate
increases that had come before, the February rate increase was widely
anticipated, and the market absorbed it smoothly. In fact, following the
Fed announcement, short-term rates actually declined.
Q. HAVE RATES PEAKED, THEN?
S.O. That's quite possible. The goal of Fed policy ever since it began
raising short-term interest rates in February 1994 has been to dampen the
economic growth rate and prevent an outbreak of inflation. Apparently, the
policy has worked. In April, the first-quarter growth rate came in at a
surprisingly low 2.8%. That marked a dramatic slowdown from the robust 5.1%
growth rate during the fourth quarter of 1994. The pattern of slower growth
persisted throughout the spring. By the end of the period, it seemed highly
unlikely that the Fed would see the need to raise rates again anytime soon.
Q. WHAT WAS YOUR STRATEGY DURING THE PERIOD?

JEFF PARKER
to come
from WTC
S.O. Whenever practical during the period, I avoided investing in small
municipal offerings of the kind typically issued by Connecticut counties
and municipalities. That's because smaller issues tend to be absorbed
quickly into the market at lower yields. Instead, I looked for
opportunities elsewhere: in tax-free commercial paper; in variable rate
demand notes, which offer yields that reset regularly in line with
prevailing rates; and in large, statewide municipal offerings, which are
too large for the Connecticut market to absorb and tend to come in at
higher yields. Meanwhile, I continued to let the fund's average maturity
roll down toward neutral territory throughout the period.
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
S.O. The fund's seven-day yield on May 31, 1995 was 3.46%, compared to
3.10% six months ago. On an after-tax basis, the fund's latest yield is the
equivalent of a 5.65% taxable rate for Connecticut investors in the 38.88%
income tax bracket. Through May 31, 1995, the fund's six-month total return
was 1.66%, compared to 1.61% for the average Connecticut tax-exempt money
market fund, according to IBC/Donoghue.
Q. JEFF, WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
J.P. There's been a dramatic shift in market psychology in recent months.
Early this year, many economists were predicting that the Fed would go
right on raising interest rates through the summer. However, the economy
has slowed, and now most economists believe it's only a matter of time
before the Fed begins lowering rates. With that in mind, I'll probably
maintain some flexibility, while looking for opportunities to gradually
extend the fund's average maturity in the months ahead.

WORDS TO KNOW
COMMERCIAL PAPER: A security
issued by a municipality to
finance capital or operating
needs.
FEDERAL FUNDS RATE: The interest
rate banks charge each other
for overnight loans.
MATURITY: The time remaining
before an issuer is scheduled
to repay the principal amount
on a debt security. When the
fund's average maturity -
weighted by dollar amount -
is short, the fund manager is
anticipating a rise in interest
rates. When the average
maturity is long, the manager
is expecting rates to fall.
When the average maturity is
neutral, the manager wants
the flexibility to respond to
rising rates, while still
capturing a portion of the
higher yields available from
issues with longer maturities.
MUNICIPAL NOTE: A security
issued in advance of future
tax or other revenues and
payable from those specific
sources.
TENDER BOND: A variable-rate,
usually long-term security that
gives the bond holder the
option to redeem the bond at
face value before maturity.
VARIABLE RATE DEMAND NOTE
(VRDN): A tender bond that
can be redeemed on short
notice, typically one or seven
days. VRDNs are useful in
managing the fund's average
maturity and liquidity.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended May 31, 1995 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES.
Fidelity Connecticut Municipal Money Market Portfolio (the fund) is a fund
of Fidelity Court Street Trust II (the trust) and is authorized to issue an
unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management
investment company organized as a Delaware business trust. The following
summarizes the significant accounting policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. As permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, and
certain conditions therein, securities are valued initially at cost and
thereafter assume a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or
premium.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for
its fiscal year. The schedule of investments includes information regarding
income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INTEREST INCOME. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium
and accretion of original issue discount, is accrued as earned. Accretion
of market discount represents unrealized gain until realized at the time of
a security disposition or maturity.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends are declared daily and paid
monthly from net interest income.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade
date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
2. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, Fidelity Management &
Research Company (FMR) receives a monthly fee that is calculated on the
basis of a group fee rate plus a fixed individual fund fee rate applied to
the average net assets of the fund. The group fee rate is the weighted
average of a series of rates and is based on the monthly average net assets
of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .1200% to
.3700% for the period. In the event that these rates were lower than the
contractual rates in effect during the period, FMR voluntarily implemented
the above rates, as they resulted in the same or a lower management fee.
The annual individual fund fee rate is .25%. For the period, the management
fee was equivalent to an annualized rate of .41% of average net assets.
SUB-ADVISER FEE. As the fund's investment sub-adviser, FMR Texas Inc., a
wholly owned subsidiary of FMR, receives a fee from FMR of 50% of the
management fee payable to FMR. The fee is paid prior to
2. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
SUB-ADVISER FEE - CONTINUED
any voluntary expense reimbursements which may be in effect, and after
reducing the fee for any payments by FMR pursuant to the fund's
Distribution and Service Plan.
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN. Pursuant to the Distribution and Service
Plan (the Plan), and in accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, FMR or
the fund's distributor, Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an
affiliate of FMR, may use their resources to pay administrative and
promotional expenses related to the sale of the fund's shares. Subject to
the approval of the Board of Trustees, the Plan also authorizes payments to
third parties that assist in the sale of the fund's shares or render
shareholder support services. FMR or FDC has informed the fund that
payments made to third parties under the Plan amounted to $9,811 for the
period.
TRANSFER AGENT AND ACCOUNTING FEES. UMB Bank, n.a. (UMB) is the custodian
and transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the fund. The Bank has
entered into a sub-contract with Fidelity Service Co. (FSC), an affiliate
of FMR, under which FSC performs the activities associated with the fund's
transfer and shareholder servicing agent and accounting functions. During
the period December 1, 1994 to December 31, 1994, the fund paid fees based
on the type, size, number of accounts and the number of transactions made
by shareholders. Effective January 1, 1995, the Board of Trustees approved
a revised transfer agent contract pursuant to which the fund pays account
fees and asset-based fees that vary according to account size and type of
account. FSC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of all shareholder
reports, except proxy statements. The accounting fee is based on the level
of average net assets for the month plus out-of-pocket expenses. For the
period, FSC received transfer agent and accounting fees amounting to
$275,461 and $32,886, respectively.
Shareholders participating in the Fidelity Ultra Service Account(registered
trademark) Program (the Program) pay a $5.00 monthly fee to Fidelity
Brokerage Services, Inc. (FBSI), an affiliate of FMR, for performing
services associated with the Program. For the period, fees paid to FBSI by
shareholders participating in the Program amounted to $12,180.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although there have been positive market indications so far in 1995, no one
can predict what lies ahead for investors. Last year, stocks posted
below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in history. This
downturn followed a period in which the investing environment was generally
very positive.
These market ups and downs are a normal part of investing, and there are
some basic principles that are helpful for investors to remember in
different types of markets.
Keeping in mind that the effects of interest rate changes on your bond
investments will only be "paper" gains or losses unless you sell your
shares, staying in your bond fund may be appropriate if your investment
horizon is at least a year or more. The longer your investing time frame,
the more likely it is that you will retain your principal investment
through both up and down markets. For example, a 10-year time frame, such
as saving for a college education, enables you to weather these ups and
downs in a long-term fund, which has higher potential returns. An
intermediate-length fund could be appropriate if your investment horizon is
two to four years, and a short-term bond fund could be the right choice if
you need your money in one or two years.
If your time horizon is less than a year, you might want to consider moving
some of your bond investment into a money market fund, which seeks income
and a stable share price by investing in high-quality, short-term
investments. Of course, there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal, and it is important to remember that money market funds
are not insured or guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
No matter what your investment horizon or portfolio diversity, it makes
good sense to follow a regular investment plan - investing a certain amount
of money at the same time each month or quarter - and to review your
portfolio periodically. A periodic investment plan will not, of course,
assure a profit or protect against a loss.
Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with your
investments.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d

PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual percentage
change, or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each figure
includes changes in a fund's share price, reinvestment of any dividends (or
income) and capital gains (the profits the fund earns when it sells
securities that have grown in value), and the effect of the $5 account
closeout fee. You can also look at the fund's income. If Fidelity had not
reimbursed certain fund expenses, the past five years and life of fund
total returns would have been lower.
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED MAY 31, 1995 PAST 6 PAST 1 PAST 5 LIFE OF
MONTHS YEAR YEARS FUND
Spartan Connecticut Municipal
High Yield Portfolio 14.02% 8.29% 47.23% 84.91%
Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index 13.05% 9.11% 51.33% n/a
Average Connecticut Tax-exempt
Municipal Bond Fund 13.43% 7.69% 46.22% n/a
Consumer Price Index 1.53% 3.19% 17.80% 32.00%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, six months, one year, five years, or
since the fund started on October 29, 1987. For example, if you invested
$1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your
investment would be $1,050. You can compare the fund's returns to the
performance of the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond index - a broad gauge of
the municipal bond market. To measure how the fund's performance stacked up
against its peers, you can compare it to the average Connecticut tax-exempt
municipal bond fund, which reflects the performance of 23 Connecticut
municipal bond funds with similar objectives tracked by Lipper Analytical
Services over the past six months. Both benchmarks include reinvested
dividends and capital gains, if any. Comparing the fund's performance to
the consumer price index (CPI) helps show how your fund did compared to
inflation. (The CPI returns begin on the month end closest to the fund's
start date.)

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say you invested $10,000 in Spartan
Connecticut Municipal High Yield Portfolio on October 31, 1987, shortly
after the fund started. As the chart shows, by May 31, 1995, the value of
your investment would have grown to $18,555 - a 85.55% increase on your
initial investment. This assumes you still own the fund on May 31, 1995,
and therefore does not include the effect of the $5 account closeout fee.
For comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond index did
over the same period. With dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 would
have grown to $19,597 - a 95.97% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is no
guarantee of how it will do
tomorrow. Bond prices, for
example, generally move in
the opposite direction of
interest rates. In turn, the
share price, return, and yield of
a fund that invests in bonds
will vary. That means if you
sell your shares during a
market downturn, you might
lose money. But if you can ride
out the market's ups and
downs, you may have a gain.

DIVIDEND returns and capital appreciation returns are both part of a bond

by the fund. A capital appreciation return reflects both the amount paid by
the fund to shareholders as capital gain distributions and changes in the
fund's share price. Both returns assume the dividends or gains are
reinvested. Capital appreciation and total returns include the effect of
the $5 account closeout fee.

DIVIDENDS per share show the income paid by the fund for a set period. If
you annualize this number, based on an average share price of $10.86 over
the past month, $10.56 over the past six months and $10.58 over the past
year, you can compare the fund's income over these three periods. The
30-day annualized YIELD is a standard formula for all funds based on the
yields of the bonds in the fund, averaged over the past 30 days. This
figure shows you the yield characteristics of the fund's investments at the
end of the period. It also helps you compare funds from different companies
on an equal basis. The tax-equivalent yield shows what you would have to
earn on a taxable investment to equal the fund's tax-free yield, if you're
in the 38.88% 1995 combined federal and state tax bracket.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Maureen Newman,
Portfolio Manager of Spartan
Connecticut Municipal High Yield
Portfolio
Q. MAUREEN, HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED?
A. For the six- and 12-month periods ended May 31, 1995, the fund had total
returns of 14.02% and 8.29%, respectively. During the same periods, the
average Connecticut municipal fund returned 13.43% and 7.69%, respectively,
as tracked by Lipper Analytical Services.
Q. WHAT'S BEHIND THE MUNICIPAL BOND MARKET'S STRONG PERFORMANCE OVER THE
PAST SIX MONTHS?
A. First, let me set the stage by reviewing the months preceding the most
recent six-month period. Taxable and tax-free bond prices fell dramatically
during much of 1994, on the heels of rising interest rates and fears that
inflation would ignite. In September and October, tax-loss selling - which
occurs when investors try to offset gains in one investment by selling
another with losses and thereby reduce their tax liability - placed
additional downward pressure on the municipal bond market. However, the
bond market began to rebound in late November as investors worried less
that the Federal Reserve Board would further raise interest rates and
tax-loss selling abated. Bond prices have risen dramatically since November
as evidence has mounted that the economy is growing at a slower rate. When
economic growth slows, the fear of inflation generally recedes and bonds
typically perform well.
Q. WHY DID THE FUND DO BETTER THAN THE AVERAGE FUND OF ITS TYPE?
A. One factor that helped the fund's performance was its relatively large
weighting in bonds rated Aaa and Aa by Moody's Investors Service, which
performed well. Bonds issued by Puerto Rico, which made up 7.9% of
investments at the end of the period, were another positive for the fund.
As a territory of the United States, Puerto Rico may issue municipal bonds
free from local, state and federal income taxes in all 50 states. That
tax-exempt status kept demand for these bonds very strong. Also, many of
the fund's Puerto Rico bonds had a relatively long duration, meaning their
prices rose more than shorter-duration bonds when the municipal bond market
rallied.
Q. YOU'VE MADE SOME CHANGES IN THE WAY YOU DISTRIBUTE THE FUND'S
INVESTMENTS AMONG BONDS WITH VARIOUS MATURITIES. WHAT CAUSED YOU TO MAKE
THOSE CHANGES?
A. During the spring, the yield curve - which reflects the yields of
various maturities -flattened. When the yield curve is flat, there is
little difference between short-term and long-term interest rates. As a
result, investors didn't have to give up much yield to own bonds with
relatively short maturities and didn't have to take on the added interest
rate risk of a longer-term bond. As the flattening occurred, I sold some
longer term bonds with maturities between 20 and 25 years, and bought some
intermediate bonds in the 10- to 15-year range. Going forward, if the yield
curve steepens, and longer term bonds once again offer substantially higher
yields, I would most likely switch out of some intermediate bonds and buy
longer-term bonds in their place.
Q. THE FUND'S STAKE IN HEALTH CARE BONDS DROPPED TO 26.4% AT THE END OF THE
PERIOD, DOWN FROM 28.5% SIX MONTHS AGO. WHY?
A. I have some concerns about the state's changing health care environment.
HMO penetration in the state, which had occurred at a slower pace than many
other areas of the country, is now picking up steam. Also, the state has
made some legislative changes regarding how it reimburses hospitals. As a
result of these concerns, I sold some health care bonds during the period.
However, I will continue to hold a core stake in health care bonds because
they offer relatively attractive yields. I used some of the proceeds from
the sale of health care bonds to buy single family mortgage revenue bonds,
which fall under the category of housing bonds. The high yield these bonds
offer makes them an attractive replacement for health care bonds.
Q. GENERAL OBLIGATION BONDS WERE THE FUND'S SECOND LARGEST SECTOR
CONCENTRATION AT THE END OF THE PERIOD AT 23.5% OF THE INVESTMENTS. WHAT
MAKES THESE BONDS ATTRACTIVE?
A. General obligation bonds, or GOs, are backed by the full faith and
credit, - which includes the taxing and further borrowing power - of a
state or municipality. Despite proposed reductions in state income taxes,
the state of Connecticut should be able to maintain a balanced budget. So
in my view, Connecticut's general obligation bonds remain a solid
investment. The state's economy has shown some recent improvement, although
its growth continues to lag the national economy. However, income levels in
the state are quite strong and certain sectors of the economy - including
the service and tourism sectors - are showing promise.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
A. In the spring there had been some discussion about how various federal
tax reform proposals - including a flat tax - would affect the
attractiveness of municipal bonds. During that time, tax-exempt bonds
underperformed taxable bonds. In my view, it's unlikely that there will be
any major tax reform proposal passed until 1997 at the earliest, although
there could be volatility in municipal bond prices as discussions of tax
reform heat up or fade in the near-term. I think that the national economy
is beginning to slow, but I don't foresee a recession in the near future.
Therefore, interest rates could stay low while tax receipts and other
revenues backing municipal bonds should remain strong. I believe that those
factors combine to create an attractive outlook for the municipal bond
market.

MAUREEN NEWMAN ON
MANAGING THE FUND:
"One way I try to add value to
the fund is by identifying
sectors which I believe have
the potential to outperform. I
start with a top down view,
and assess how broad
economic and other trends
might shape a particular
sector's prospects. I use
fundamental research -
checking investment options
issuer by issuer - to identify
individual bonds which I
believe present an adequate
reward to compensate for
potential risk. Once I
determine which sectors and
individual bonds within that
sector look attractive, I
consider how I want the fund
to be distributed in terms of
maturity."

PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
To measure a money market fund's performance, you can look at either total
return or yield. Total return reflects the change in a fund's share price
over a given period, reinvestment of its dividends (or income), and the
effect of the fund's $5 account closeout fee. Yield measures the income
paid by a fund. Since a money market fund tries to maintain a $1 share
price, yield is an important measure of performance. If Fidelity had not
reimbursed certain fund expenses, the life of fund total returns would have
been lower.

Average Connecticut Tax-Free
Money Market Fund 1.61% 2.83% 10.97%

CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, six months, one year, or since the fund
started on March 4, 1991. For example, if you invested $1,000 in a fund
that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your investment would
be $1,050. To measure how the fund's performance stacked up against its
peers, you can compare it to the average Connecticut tax-free money market
fund, which reflects the performance of 12 Connecticut tax-free money
market funds with similar objectives tracked by IBC/Donoghue over the past
six months. Comparing the fund's performance to the consumer price index
(CPI) helps show how your investment did compared to inflation. (The
periods covered by the CPI and IBC/Donoghue numbers are the closest
available match to those covered by the fund.)

YIELD refers to the income paid by the fund over a given period. Yields for
money market funds are usually for seven-day periods, expressed as annual
percentage rates. A yield that assumes income earned is reinvested or
compounded is called an effective yield. The chart above shows the fund's
current seven-day yield at quarterly intervals over the past year. You can
compare these yields to the average Connecticut tax-free money market fund.
Or you can look at the fund's tax-equivalent yield, which is based on a
combined effective 1995 federal and state income tax rate of 38.88% and
reflects that a portion of the fund's income was subject to state taxes. A
portion of the fund's income may be subject to the alternative minimum tax.
A MONEY MARKET FUND'S TOTAL RETURNS AND YIELDS WILL VARY, AND REFLECT PAST
RESULTS RATHER THAN PREDICT FUTURE PERFORMANCE.
COMPARING
PERFORMANCE
Yields on tax-free
investments are usually lower
than yields on taxable
investments. However, a
straight comparison between
the two may be misleading
because it ignores the way
taxes reduce taxable returns.
Tax-equivalent yield - the
yield you'd have to earn on a
similar taxable investment to
match the tax-free yield -
makes the comparison more
meaningful. Keep in mind that
the U.S. government neither
insures nor guarantees a
money market fund. In fact,
there is no assurance that a
money market fund will
maintain a $1 share price.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
NOTE TO SHAREHOLDERS:
On June 1, 1995, Jeff Parker
(left) became portfolio manager of
Spartan Connecticut Municipal Money Market Portfolio. The following is an
interview with Scott Orr (right) - who managed the fund during the period
covered by this report - with some comments from Jeff Parker
on his outlook and strategy:
Q. SCOTT, CAN YOU TELL US HOW THE INVESTMENT CLIMATE HAS CHANGED DURING THE
PAST SIX MONTHS?
S.O. Sure. Conditions on the whole were calmer and more predictable than
they were during most of 1994. The Federal Reserve raised the federal funds
rate - the rate banks charge each other for overnight loans - one-half
percentage point in February. However, unlike most of the six other rate
increases that had come before, the February rate increase was widely
anticipated, and the market absorbed it smoothly. In fact, following the
Fed announcement, short-term rates actually declined.
Q. HAVE RATES PEAKED, THEN?
S.O. That's quite possible. The goal of Fed policy ever since it began
raising short-term interest rates in February 1994 has been to dampen the
economic growth rate and prevent an outbreak of inflation. Apparently, the
policy has worked. In April the release of the first-quarter growth rate
came in at a surprisingly low 2.8%. That marked a dramatic slowdown from
the robust 5.1% growth rate during the fourth quarter of 1994. The pattern
of slower growth persisted throughout the spring. By the end of the period,
it seemed highly unlikely that the Fed would see the need to raise rates
again anytime soon.
Q. WHAT WAS YOUR STRATEGY DURING THE PERIOD?
Hardcopy of
Photo of
JEFF PARKER
to come
from WTC
S.O. Whenever practical during the period, I avoided investing in small
municipal offerings of the kind typically issued by Connecticut counties
and municipalities. That's because smaller issues tend to be absorbed
quickly into the market at lower yields. Instead, I looked for
opportunities elsewhere: in tax-free commercial paper; in variable rate
demand notes, which offer yields that reset regularly in line with
prevailing rates; and in large, statewide municipal offerings, which are
too large for the Connecticut market to absorb and tend to come in at
higher yields. Meanwhile, I continued to let the fund's average maturity
roll down toward neutral territory throughout the period.
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
S.O. The fund's seven-day yield on May 31, 1995 was 3.60%, compared to
3.24% six months ago. On an after-tax basis, the fund's latest yield is
equivalent to a 5.86% taxable rate for Connecticut investors in the 38.88%
income tax bracket. Through May 31, 1995, the fund's six-month total return
was 1.73%, compared to 1.61% for the average Connecticut tax-exempt money
market fund, according to IBC/Donoghue.
Q. JEFF, WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
J.P. There's been a dramatic shift in market psychology in recent months.
Early this year, many economists were predicting that the Fed would go
right on raising interest rates through the summer. However, the economy
has slowed and now most economists believe it's only a matter of time
before the Fed begins lowering rates. With that in mind, I'll probably
maintain some flexibility while looking for opportunities to gradually
extend the fund's average maturity in the months ahead.

WORDS TO KNOW
COMMERCIAL PAPER: A security
issued by a municipality to
finance capital or operating
needs.
FEDERAL FUNDS RATE: The interest
rate banks charge each other
for overnight loans.
MATURITY: The time remaining
before an issuer is scheduled
to repay the principal amount
on a debt security. When the
fund's average maturity -
weighted by dollar amount -
is short, the fund manager is
anticipating a rise in interest
rates. When the average
maturity is long, the manager
is expecting rates to fall.
When the average maturity is
neutral, the manager wants
the flexibility to respond to
rising rates, while still
capturing a portion of the
higher yields available from
issues with longer maturities.
MUNICIPAL NOTE: A security
issued in advance of future
tax or other revenues and
payable from those specific
sources.
TENDER BOND: A variable-rate,
usually long-term security that
gives the bond holder the
option to redeem the bond at
face value before maturity.
VARIABLE RATE DEMAND NOTE
(VRDN): A tender bond that
can be redeemed on short
notice, typically one or seven
days. VRDNs are useful in
managing the fund's average
maturity and liquidity.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended May 31, 1995 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES.
Spartan Connecticut Municipal High Yield Portfolio (the high yield fund) is
a fund of Fidelity Court Street Trust. Spartan Connecticut Municipal Money
Market Portfolio (the money market fund) is a fund of Fidelity Court Street
Trust II. Each trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment
company. Fidelity Court Street Trust and Fidelity Court Street Trust II
(the trusts) are organized as a Massachusetts business trust and a Delaware
business trust, respectively. Each fund is authorized to issue an unlimited
number of shares. The following summarizes the significant accounting
policies of the money market fund and the high yield fund:
SECURITY VALUATION.
HIGH YIELD FUND. Securities are valued based upon a computerized matrix
system and/or appraisals by a pricing service, both of which consider
market transactions and dealer-supplied valuations. Short-term securities
maturing within sixty days of their purchase date are valued either at
amortized cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which
approximate current value. Securities for which quotations are not readily
available through the pricing service are valued at their fair value as
determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the
general supervision of the Board of Trustees.
MONEY MARKET FUND. As permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, and
certain conditions therein, securities are valued initially at cost and
thereafter assume a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or
premium.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code, each fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for
the fiscal year. The schedules of investments include information regarding
income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INTEREST INCOME. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium
and accretion of original issue discount, is accrued as earned. For the
money market fund, accretion of market discount represents unrealized gain
until realized at the time of a security disposition or maturity.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of each trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends are declared daily and paid
monthly from net interest income. Distributions to shareholders from
realized capital gains on investments, if any, are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for
futures and options transactions.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES - CONTINUED
REDEMPTION FEES. Shares held in the high yield fund less than 180 days are
subject to a redemption fee equal to .50% of the proceeds of the redeemed
shares. The fee, which is retained by the fund, is accounted for as an
addition to paid in capital.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as
of trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on
the basis of identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND OPTIONS. The high yield fund may invest in futures
and options contracts, and may also write options. These investments
involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk and risks in excess of
the amount recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The face
or contract amounts, as reflected in the schedule of investments under the
caption "Futures Contracts," reflect the extent of the involvement the high
yield fund has in the particular classes of instruments. Risks may be
caused by an imperfect correlation between movements in the price of the
instruments and the price of the underlying securities and interest rates.
Risks also may arise if there is an illiquid secondary market for the
instruments, or due to the inability of counterparties to perform.
Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day
by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Options traded
on an exchange are valued using the last sale price or, in the absence of a
sale, the last offering price. Options traded over-the-counter are valued
using dealer-supplied valuations.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF
INVESTMENTS.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $36,087,995 and $44,546,265, respectively.
The market value of futures contracts opened and closed during the period
amounted to $21,123,037 and $24,590,198, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As each fund's investment adviser, Fidelity Management &
Research Company (FMR) pays all expenses, except the compensation of the
non-interested Trustees and certain exceptions such as interest, taxes,
brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses. FMR receives a fee that
is computed daily at an annual rate of .55% and .50% of average net assets
for the high yield and money market funds, respectively.
FMR also bears the cost of providing shareholder services to each fund. To
offset the cost of providing these services, FMR or its affiliates
collected certain transaction fees from shareholders which amounted to
$2,210 and $1,773 for the high yield and money market funds, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
SUB-ADVISER FEE. As the money market fund's investment sub-adviser, FMR
Texas Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of FMR, receives a fee from FMR of
50% of the management fee payable to FMR. The fee is paid prior to any
voluntary expense reimbursements which may be in effect, and after reducing
the fee for any payments by FMR pursuant to the fund's Distribution and
Service Plan.
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN. Pursuant to the Distribution and Service
Plans (the Plans), and in accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, FMR
or the funds' distributor, Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an
affiliate of FMR, may use their resources to pay administrative and
promotional expenses related to the sale of each fund's shares. Subject to
the approval of each Board of Trustees, the Plans also authorize payments
to third parties that assist in the sale of each fund's shares or render
shareholder support services. FMR or FDC has informed the funds that
payments made to third parties under the Plans amounted to $1,250 for the
high yield fund and no payments were made for the money market fund for the
period.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although there have been positive market indications so far in 1995, no one
can predict what lies ahead for investors. Last year, stocks posted
below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in history. This
downturn followed a period in which the investing environment was generally
very positive.
These market ups and downs are a normal part of investing, and there are
some basic principles that are helpful for investors to remember in
different types of markets.
Keeping in mind that the effects of interest rate changes on your bond
investments will only be "paper" gains or losses unless you sell your
shares, staying in your bond fund may be appropriate if your investment
horizon is at least a year or more. The longer your investing time frame,
the more likely it is that you will retain your principal investment
through both up and down markets. For example, a 10-year time frame, such
as saving for a college education, enables you to weather these ups and
downs in a long-term fund, which has higher potential returns. An
intermediate-length fund could be appropriate if your investment horizon is
two to four years, and a short-term bond fund could be the right choice if
you need your money in one or two years.
If your time horizon is less than a year, you might want to consider moving
some of your bond investment into a money market fund, which seeks income
and a stable share price by investing in high-quality, short-term
investments. Of course, there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal, and it is important to remember that money market funds
are not insured or guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
No matter what your investment horizon or portfolio diversity, it makes
good sense to follow a regular investment plan - investing a certain amount
of money at the same time each month or quarter - and to review your
portfolio periodically. A periodic investment plan will not, of course,
assure a profit or protect against a loss.
Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with your
investments.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
SPARTAN FLORIDA MUNICIPAL INCOME PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual percentage
change, or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each figure
includes changes in a fund's share price, reinvestment of any dividends (or
income) and capital gains (the profits the fund earns when it sells
securities that have grown in value), and the effect of the $5 account
closeout fee. You can also look at the fund's income. If Fidelity had not
reimbursed certain fund expenses, the past 1 year and the life of fund
total returns, dividends and yields would have been lower.
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS

Average Florida Tax-exempt
Municipal Bond Fund 14.72% 9.17% n/a
Consumer Price Index 1.53% 3.19% 9.26%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance over a set period - in
this case, six months, one year or since the fund started on March 16,
1992. For example, if you invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return
over the past year, the value of your investment would be $1,050. You can
compare the fund's returns to the performance of the Lehman Brothers
Municipal Bond index - a broad gauge of the municipal bond market. To
measure how the fund's performance stacked up against its peers, you can
compare it to the average Florida municipal bond fund, which reflects the
performance of 74 Florida tax-exempt municipal bond funds with similar
objectives tracked by Lipper Analytical Services over the past six months.
Both benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any.
Comparing the fund's performance to the consumer price index (CPI) helps
show how your fund did compared to inflation.(The CPI returns begin on the
month end closest to the fund's start date.)

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say you invested $10,000 in Spartan
Florida Municipal Income Portfolio on March 31, 1992, shortly after the
fund started. As the chart shows, by May 31, 1995, the value of your
investment would have grown to $13,293 - a 32.93% increase on your initial
investment. This assumes you still own the fund on May 31, 1995, and
therefore does not include the effect of the $5 account closeout fee. For
comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond index did over
the same period. With dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 would have
grown to $12,781 - a 27.81% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is no
guarantee of how it will do
tomorrow. Bond prices, for
example, generally move in
the opposite direction of
interest rates. In turn, the
share price, return, and yield of
a fund that invests in bonds
will vary. That means if you
sell your shares during a
market downturn, you might
lose money. But if you can ride
out the market's ups and
downs, you may have a gain.

DIVIDEND returns and capital appreciation returns are both part of a bond

by the fund. A capital appreciation return reflects both the amount paid by
the fund to shareholders as capital gain distributions and changes in the
fund's share price. Both returns assume the dividends or gains are
reinvested. Capital appreciation and total returns include the effect of
the $5 account closeout fee.

yields of the bonds in the fund, averaged over the past 30 days. This
figure shows you the yield characteristics of the fund's investments at the
end of the period. It also helps you compare funds from different companies
on an equal basis. The tax-equivalent yield shows what you would have to
earn on a taxable investment to equal the fund's tax-free yield, if you're
in the 36% 1995 combined federal tax bracket.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Anne Punzak,
Portfolio Manager of Spartan Florida Municipal Income Portfolio
Q. ANNE, HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED?
A. It has done well. For the six and 12 months ended May 31, 1995, the fund
had total returns of 15.28% and 9.50%, respectively. That beat the average
Florida municipal fund, which returned 14.72% and 9.17%, respectively, over
the same periods, according to Lipper Analytical Services.
Q. WHAT HAS THE MUNICIPAL BOND INVESTING ENVIRONMENT BEEN LIKE DURING THE
PAST SIX MONTHS?
A. The municipal market has been rallying significantly since November
1994. There has been a perception in the marketplace that the economy's
growth rate is slowing, meaning there is less of a possibility that the
Federal Reserve Board will raise interest rates, something it did seven
times from February 1994 through February 1995. The Fed did so because it
was trying to curb the inflation that usually accompanies the strong
economic growth the U.S. saw through much of 1994. However, based upon
recent economic statistics that reflect slower growth and moderate
inflation, there actually has been discussion that the Fed might even lower
interest rates.
Q. YET THE MUNICIPAL MARKET HAS LAGGED THE TREASURY MARKET RECENTLY...
A. Right. At the beginning of March, munis were relatively rich - or priced
high in light of historical levels - relative to Treasuries, but have since
decreased in relative value. The recent drop mainly has been because of
political discussions concerning the possible imposition of a flat income
tax. The flat tax proposals being considered would lead to a lower tax-rate
environment, one in which municipal bonds would drop in value. One of the
factors affecting the value of municipal bonds is the level of tax rates.
Higher tax rates tend to increase demand - and thus the value - of
municipal bonds, while lower tax rates decrease demand and value. So the
market has taken the effects of the flat tax into account, leading to the
underperformance.
Q. DO YOU FIND THE POSSIBILITY OF A FLAT TAX TO BE A CAUSE FOR CONCERN?
A. For the moment, no, because, as I've said, the market has already
factored in this possibility. Even though hearings on tax alternatives were
scheduled to take place right after the end of the period, I don't expect
there to be significant changes in personal income tax rates until 1997. I
believe the end result largely will depend on whether the Republicans are
able to win the White House in 1996.
Q. WHAT LED THE FUND TO PERFORM BETTER THAN ITS PEERS?
A. Two things. First, the fund had a larger concentration of investments in
higher-quality, insured bonds than many other funds. Second, I focused the
fund's investments in the 10- to 20-year maturity range. The high-quality,
insured bonds, especially those in this range, were among the best
performing securities during the period, so the fund benefited from
exposure in those areas.
Q. WHAT WAS BEHIND THESE STRATEGIES?
A. The fund has been increasing its investments in insured bonds for two
main reasons, but before I elaborate, let me remind you what is meant by an
insured bond. An insured bond is one whose interest and principal payments
are guaranteed by one of four municipal bond insurance companies. All
municipal insured bonds carry a credit rating of Aaa from the rating
agencies. I should add that although the interest and principal payments
are guaranteed, the insurance does not guarantee against price changes due
to interest rate movements. That being said, one of the reasons I've
focused on this area is that high-quality insured bonds typically
outperform in a market rally because they are more liquid, or easily
traded. The second reason is that the majority of new issuance in Florida
has been in the insured bond area. As a result, the yield spread - or the
difference between the yield of bonds with similar maturities but different
credit quality, often called a yield advantage - has been narrow. This has
made higher-quality issues more attractive to me.
Q. AND WHY HAVE YOU TARGETED THE 10- TO 20-YEAR MATURITY RANGE?
A. For two reasons. First, the yield curve - a representation of the
difference between short-term rates and long-term rates - was quite flat
beyond the 20-year mark, meaning there wasn't much added benefit to buying
a longer bond. Second, retail buyers - especially older investors - in
Florida seem to prefer to invest in bonds in this range, not beyond. Their
added demand has helped liquidity and prices in that maturity range.
Q. YOU'VE REDUCED THE FUND'S INVESTMENTS IN PUERTO RICO BONDS. WHY IS THAT?
A. First of all, with spreads being narrow, there was less of an advantage
to holding the Puerto Rico bonds, which, for the most part, had an A
rating. When spreads narrow like that, I feel that it's a good time to sell
the lower-rated bonds. In addition, I do have some long-range concerns
about Puerto Rico's credit outlook. These concerns center on two things.
First, the Puerto Rican governor's tax-reform package will reduce tax
revenues. Second, I find the governor's economic projections to be overly
optimistic. In addition, the tax credits that corporations historically
have received for locating in Puerto Rico are being threatened by current
attempts to cut the federal budget. These credits already were reduced in
1993 as part of a federal deficit-cutting package. Going forward, I would
not be surprised to see these tax credits reduced further. Although it is
unlikely that the companies already located in Puerto Rico will leave even
if they don't continue to receive these tax credits - because they're
entrenched there - cuts in subsidies might discourage additional
corporations from relocating to Puerto Rico. That ultimately could impact
the Puerto Rican economy.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK GOING FORWARD?
A. I don't expect the flat tax will pass, so I don't expect munis to
cheapen further relative to Treasuries. In terms of the economy, I don't
believe we're headed for a recession. It looks like we'll have a period of
sub-par growth, but I think that will be the "pause that refreshes." I'd
expect to see economic growth pick up in 1996. Over the next few months, I
wouldn't be surprised to see municipal bond prices remain fairly stable, as
participants try to determine whether we're going into a recession or not,
or whether the economy is going to be invigorated due to recent declines in
interest rates.

ANNE PUNZAK ON THE FLORIDA
ECONOMY:
"The Florida economy has
been quite strong.
Employment and economic
growth remain above the
national averages. The
economy used to be highly
dependent on tourism, much
more susceptible to the
upturns and downturns in the
national economy. That is no
longer the case; the economy
is much more diversified. New
jobs have been created in
areas such as insurance and
banking. Some multinational
corporations have established
offices in Miami, in order to
increase their Latin American
business. The health of the
economy helps dictate
demand; with more people
making more money, there's
more demand for tax-exempt
bonds."
- -------
(solid bullet) The insured bonds the
manager has been targeting
are mainly those that are not
callable - not redeemable by
the issuer before the
scheduled maturity. These
have performed well during
the period.
(solid bullet) The fund's weighting in
electrical utility issues has
increased from 12.5% six
months ago to15.6% at the
end of the period, including
investments in Jacksonville
Electric and Orlando Electric.
The specific appeal of these
bonds was their high credit
ratings; new investments
there are not indicative of a
sector-specific strategy.

PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
To measure a money market fund's performance, you can look at either total
return or yield. Total return reflects the change in a fund's share price
over a given period, reinvestment of its dividends (or income), and the
effect of the fund's $5 account closeout fee. Yield measures the income
paid by a fund. Since a money market fund tries to maintain a $1 share
price, yield is an important measure of performance. If Fidelity had not
reimbursed the fund for certain expenses, the past 1 year and life of fund
total returns would have been lower.

Average All Tax-Free
Money Market Fund 1.72% 2.99% 6.70%
Consumer Price Index 1.53% 3.19% 8.02%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, six months, one year, or since the fund
started on August 24,1992. For example, if you invested $1,000 in a fund
that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your investment would
be $1,050. To measure how the fund's performance stacked up against its
peers, you can compare it to the average all tax-free money market fund,
which reflects the performance of 389 all tax-free money market funds with
similar objectives tracked by IBC/Donoghue over the past six months.
Comparing the fund's performance to the consumer price index (CPI) helps
show how your fund did compared to inflation. (The periods covered by the
CPI and IBC/Donoghue numbers are the closest available match to those
covered by the fund.)

YIELD refers to the income paid by the fund over a given period. Yields for
money market funds are usually for seven-day periods, expressed as annual
percentage rates. A yield that assumes income earned is reinvested or
compounded is called an effective yield. The chart above shows the fund's
current seven-day yield at quarterly intervals over the past year. If the
adviser had not reimbursed certain fund expenses during the periods shown,
the yields would have been lower. You can compare these yields to the
average all tax-free money market fund as tracked by IBC/Donoghue. Or you
can look at the fund's tax-equivalent yield, which is based on a combined
effective 1995 federal tax rate of 36%. A portion of the fund's income may
be subject to the alternative minimum tax.
A MONEY MARKET FUND'S TOTAL RETURNS AND YIELDS WILL VARY, AND REFLECT PAST
RESULTS RATHER THAN PREDICT FUTURE PERFORMANCE.
COMPARING
PERFORMANCE
Yields on tax-free investments
are usually lower than yields
on taxable investments.
However, a straight
comparison between the two
may be misleading because it
ignores the way taxes reduce
taxable returns. Tax-equivalent
yield - the yield you'd have to
earn on a similar taxable
investment to match the
tax-free yield - makes the
comparison more meaningful.
Keep in mind that the U.S.
government neither insures nor
guarantees a money market
fund. In fact, there is no
assurance that a money fund
will maintain a $1 share price.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
NOTE TO SHAREHOLDERS:
On June 1, 1995, Jan Bradburn
(left) became portfolio manager of Spartan Florida Municipal Money Market
Portfolio. The following is an interview with Deborah Watson - who managed
the fund during the period covered by this report - with some comments from
Jan Bradburn on her outlook and strategy:
Q. DEB, WHAT KIND OF ENVIRONMENT HAVE YOU BEEN OPERATING IN FOR THE PAST
SIX MONTHS?
D.W. A transitional one. After a year in which the Federal Reserve raised
interest rates continually - hoping to slow down the pace of economic
growth and thwart inflation - the first half of 1995 was relatively
uneventful. The only Fed move during the period was a
one-half-percentage-point increase in February. But while the Fed stood
aside, the market shifted dramatically, thanks in part to the cumulative
effect of prior Fed moves. It's hard to overstate the turnaround in market
psychology that occurred during the past six months. At the beginning of
the period, the economy was still growing rapidly, expanding at a rate that
topped 5% in the fourth quarter of 1994. In early 1995, though, we began to
see the first signs of weakness in housing starts and retail sales. When
the first-quarter growth rate was released in April, and came in
surprisingly low at 2.8%, there was no longer any doubt: the economy was
slowing down. By the end of the period, some economists were warning of an
imminent recession, and many were predicting that the next Fed move would
be to lower rates, possibly as early as this summer.
Q. WHAT WAS YOUR STRATEGY DURING THE PERIOD?
S.O. As always with the Florida fund, technical factors heavily influenced
strategy. Assets nearly doubled during December, as investors sought
shelter from the state intangible tax. During that time, the fund's stake
in short-term variable rate demand notes, or VRDNs, rose to 70%. VRDNs,
because they're highly liquid, helped provide the flexibility the fund
needed to meet redemptions once assets began flowing back out of the fund
early in the year. The fund's average maturity was 27 days at the end of
November. It reached 34 days in February, after the wave of redemptions,
and was 29 days at the end of May.

Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
S.O. Better than most other tax-free money market funds. The fund's
seven-day yield on May 31, 1995, was 3.74%, up from 3.31% six months ago.
That equaled a 5.84% taxable rate for investors in the 36% income tax
bracket. Through May 31, 1995, the fund's six-month total return was 1.82%,
compared to 1.72% for the average all tax-free money market fund for the
same period, according to IBC/Donoghue.
Q. JAN, WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
J.P. If the recent economic weakness persists, the Fed may well reverse
policy and lower interest rates this summer. On the other hand, if
inventories decline and production picks up, then the growth rate could
stop falling. Either way, the upshot could be a more stable rate
environment in the months ahead. That's one factor to keep in mind. Another
is the supply issue. Unlike many other states, Florida doesn't concentrate
its new issuance in the summer months. Traditionally, that has caused
demand to outstrip supply in the summer, often driving rates down. I'll
probably look for opportunities to extend the fund's average maturity in
the months ahead, perhaps aiming for the mid 40s as supply permits.

WORDS TO KNOW
COMMERCIAL PAPER: A security
issued by a municipality to
finance capital or operating
needs.
FEDERAL FUNDS RATE: The interest
rate banks charge each other
for overnight loans.
MATURITY: The time remaining
before an issuer is scheduled
to repay the principal amount
on a debt security. When the
fund's average maturity -
weighted by dollar amount -
is short, the fund manager is
anticipating a rise in interest
rates. When the average
maturity is long, the manager
is expecting rates to fall.
When the average maturity is
neutral, the manager wants
the flexibility to respond to
rising rates, while still
capturing a portion of the
higher yields available from
issues with longer maturities.
MUNICIPAL NOTE: A security
issued in advance of future
tax or other revenues and
payable from those specific
sources.
TENDER BOND: A variable-rate,
usually long-term security that
gives the bond holder the
option to redeem the bond at
face value before maturity.
VARIABLE RATE DEMAND NOTE
(VRDN): A tender bond that
can be redeemed on short
notice, typically one or seven
days. VRDNs are useful in
managing the fund's average
maturity and liquidity.

For the period ended May 31, 1995 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES.
Spartan Florida Municipal Income Portfolio (the income fund) is a fund of
Fidelity Court Street Trust. Spartan Florida Municipal Money Market
Portfolio (the money market fund) is a fund of Fidelity Court Street Trust
II. Each trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company.
Fidelity Court Street Trust and Fidelity Court Street Trust II (the trusts)
are organized as a Massachusetts business trust and a Delaware business
trust, respectively. Each fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number
of shares. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of
the income fund and the money market fund:
SECURITY VALUATION.
INCOME FUND. Securities are valued based upon a computerized matrix system
and/or appraisals by a pricing service, both of which consider market
transactions and dealer-supplied valuations. Short-term securities maturing
within sixty days of their purchase date are valued either at amortized
cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate
current value. Securities for which quotations are not readily available
through the pricing service are valued at their fair value as determined in
good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general
supervision of the Board of Trustees.
MONEY MARKET FUND. As permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, and
certain conditions therein, securities are valued initially at cost and
thereafter assume a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or
premium.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code, each fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for
the fiscal year. The schedules of investments include information regarding
income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INTEREST INCOME. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium
and accretion of original issue discount, is accrued as earned. For the
money market fund, accretion of market discount represents unrealized gain
until realized at the time of a security disposition or maturity.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of each trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends are declared daily and paid
monthly from net interest income. Distributions to shareholders from
realized capital gains on investments, if any, are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for
futures

and options transactions. The income fund also utilized earnings and
profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares as a part of
the dividends paid deduction for income tax purposes.
REDEMPTION FEES. Shares held in the income fund less than 180 days are
subject to a redemption fee equal to .50% of the proceeds of the redeemed
shares. The fee, which is retained by the fund, is accounted for as an
addition to paid in capital.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade
date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
DELAYED DELIVERY TRANSACTIONS. Each fund may purchase or sell securities on
a when-issued or forward commitment basis. Payment and delivery may take
place a month or more after the date of the transaction. The price of the
underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered
and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. Each fund
may receive compensation for interest forgone in a delayed delivery
transaction. Each fund identifies securities as segregated in its custodial
records with a value at least equal to the amount of the purchase
commitment.
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND OPTIONS. The income fund may invest in futures and
options contracts, and may also write options. These investments involve,
to varying degrees, elements of market risk and risks in excess of the
amount recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Risks may be
caused by an imperfect correlation between movements in the price of the
instruments and the price of the underlying securities and interest rates.
Risks also may arise if there is an illiquid secondary market for the
instruments, or due to the inability of counterparties to perform.
Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day
by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Options traded
on an exchange are valued using the last sale price or, in the absence of a
sale, the last offering price. Options traded over-the-counter are valued
using dealer-supplied valuations.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF
INVESTMENTS.
INCOME FUND. Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term
securities, aggregated $117,728,908 and $122,186,468, respectively.The
market value of futures contracts opened and closed during the period
amounted to $26,589,894 and $38,200,511, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As each fund's investment adviser, Fidelity Management &
Research Company (FMR) pays all expenses, except the compensation of the
non-interested Trustees and certain exceptions such as interest,

MANAGEMENT FEE - CONTINUED
taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses. FMR receives a fee
that is computed daily at an annual rate of .55% and .50% of average net
assets for the income and money market funds, respectively.
FMR also bears the cost of providing shareholder services to each fund. To
offset the cost of providing these services, FMR or its affiliates
collected certain transaction fees from shareholders which amounted to
$1,950 and $3,146 for the income and money market funds, respectively.
SUB-ADVISER FEE. As the money market fund's investment sub-adviser, FMR
Texas Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of FMR, receives a fee from FMR of
50% of the management fee payable to FMR. The fee is paid prior to any
voluntary expense reimbursements which may be in effect, and after reducing
the fee for any payments by FMR pursuant to the fund's Distribution and
Service Plan.
