PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although stocks have managed to post solid returns through the first five
months of 1996, signs of strength in the economy have led to inflation
fears, causing some uncertainty in bond markets so far this year. In 1995,
both stock and bond markets posted strong results, while the year before,
stocks posted below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in
history.
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
SPARTAN FLORIDA MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND
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 on an average sized account. You can also look at the fund's
income. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain fund expenses, the life of
fund total returns, dividends and yields would have been lower.
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS

Lehman Brothers Florida Municipal -0.87% 4.19% n/a

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
Florida Municipal Bond Index, which includes Florida investment-grade
municipal bonds. To measure how the fund's performance stacked up against
its peers, you can compare it to the Florida municipal debt funds average,
which reflects the performance of 80 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.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say you invested $10,000 in Spartan
Florida Municipal Income Fund on March 31, 1992, shortly after the fund
started. As the chart shows, by May 31, 1996, the value of your investment
would have grown to $13,843 - a 38.43% increase on your initial investment.
This assumes you still own the fund on May 31, 1996, and therefore does not
include the effect of the $5 account closeout fee. For comparison, look at
how the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index-which reflects the performance
of the investment grade municipal bond market-did over the same period.
With dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 would have grown to $13,362 - a
33.62% 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 $10.84 over
the past month, $11.05 over the past six months and $10.97 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 36% 1996 federal tax bracket, but does not reflect payment of the
federal alternative minimum tax, if applicable.
SPARTAN FLORIDA MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
NOTE TO SHAREHOLDERS: In May1996, Jonathan Short became portfolio manager
of Spartan Florida
Municipal Income Fund, replacing
Maureen Newman.
Q. HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED, JON?
A. For the six- and 12-month periods ended May 31, 1996, the fund had total
returns of -0.85% and 4.13%, respectively. The Florida municipal debt funds
average returned -1.44% for the same six-month period and 3.29% for the
same 12-month period, as tracked by Lipper Analytical Services. Also, for
the same six- and 12-month periods ended May 31, 1996, the Lehman Brothers
Florida Municipal Bond Index returned -0.87% and 4.19%, respectively.
Q. WHAT IS MEANT BY TOTAL RETURN?
A. Total return is the "total" amount of return to the fund's shareholders,
and reflects both income and changes in share price. Interest income is the
main source of return for a bond fund over the long term. In addition, the
change in a bond fund's share price plays a role in determining total
return based on appreciation or depreciation of the fund's holdings. Let's
look at an example. If someone invested $100 in this fund 12 months ago,
reinvested the dividends and capital gains, and didn't sell before the end
of the period, the investment would have been worth $104.14 as of May 31,
1996. That is what is meant by a total return of 4.14%. This return is
slightly higher than the 4.13% return I cited earlier, which includes the
effect of the $5 account closeout fee.
Q. WHAT FACTORS SHAPED THE MUNICIPAL BOND MARKET'S PERFORMANCE OVER THE
PAST SIX MONTHS?
A. Signs of a strengthening economy caused yields to rise and bond prices
to fall during the period. Throughout the past six months, investors became
increasingly concerned that the strengthening U.S. economy would translate
into higher inflation, which in turn could force interest rates higher.
Even though the Federal Reserve Board lowered short-term interest rates in
January, investors largely discounted the move. In early March, an
employment report came out showing that job growth for February far
exceeded most expectations. The bond market took quite a tumble and it has
been struggling to recover. While both markets have had negative returns,
munis have fared better than Treasuries on a relative basis. That's due to
the relatively low supply of municipals issued during the period, coupled
with diminishing fears of a flat tax.
Q. WHAT HELPED THE FUND PERFORM
BETTER THAN THE FLORIDA MUNICIPAL DEBT FUNDS AVERAGE OVER THE PAST SIX
MONTHS?
A. Performance was helped by a number of specific holdings. For example,
one of the fund's best performers was Alachua County Florida Health
Facility/Santa Fe Health Care Systems. These bonds rose when the hospital
was taken over by another health concern and, as a result, the bonds were
pre-refunded and their credit rating rose to Aaa from A.
Q. WHAT ARE SOME AREAS OF THE MARKET YOU FOCUSED ON SINCE TAKING OVER?
A. I focused on increasing the fund's holdings in intermediate maturity
securities. The yield curve - which is a graphical representation of the
difference in yields between bonds with various maturities - had an upward
slope when I took over the fund. By that I mean that generally bonds with
longer maturities offered higher yields. However, the difference in yields
between bonds with intermediate maturities and those with very long
maturities in my view, wasn't adequate enough to compensate for the added
risk of long-maturity bonds.
Q. WHAT OTHER AREAS OF THE FLORIDA MUNICIPAL BOND MARKET WERE YOU LOOKING
AT?
A. I focused on non-callable securities - which can't be redeemed by their
issuer before their maturity - whenever the spread relationship between
non-callables and callables was attractive. In an environment where the
bond market is rallying, callable bonds can be taken away by their issuer,
while non-callables can't, which can give non-callables an advantage when
it comes to total return. I looked for some interesting opportunities in
zero coupon bonds at levels I viewed as relatively cheap. A zero coupon
security makes no periodic interest payments but instead is sold at a deep
discount from its face value. The buyer of such a bond receives the rate of
return by gradual appreciation of a security, which is redeemed at face
value on a specified maturity date.
Q. WHAT'S AHEAD FOR THE FUND?
A. There are going to be some changes to the fund's investment policies. As
of June 24, 1996, the fund will reserve the right to invest up to 5% of its
assets - down from one-third - in below investment-grade securities. The
fund does not intent to seek out the lower-quality, below investment-grade
bonds. Instead, this change gives the fund additional flexibility under
unusual circumstances. Fidelity also will use two additional agencies -
Duff & Phelps Credit Rating Co. and Fitch Investors Service, L.P., as well
as Moody's Investors Service and Standard & Poor's which the fund already
uses - to determine the credit quality of the fund's bonds.
Q. WHAT'S AHEAD FOR THE MUNICIPAL MARKET?
A. Given that falling interest rates were the primary engine driving the
bond market's performance last year, it looks as though it may be difficult
for municipals to match 1995's gains this year. So in my view, identifying
the right securities within the right sectors will likely be the key to
outperforming the market in 1996.

JONATHAN SHORT ON HIS
STRATEGY:
"My overall philosophy in
managing a portfolio is to
stress balance in both
security structure and
positioning along the yield
curve. At the same time, of
course, I'm trying to maintain
the highest yield and
tax-exempt income possible
for the fund's shareholders. I
do pay strict attention to
whether the slope of the yield
curve is providing adequate
yield compensation relative to
risk. As far as credit quality, I
felt that at the end of the
period, credit spreads were
fairly tight, and the difference
between Aaa-rated securities
and Baa-rated securities was
not as significant as it could
have been. I'll continue to be
active in positioning the fund
in those areas of credit quality
that I feel have the potential to
provide the best long-term
value for investors. I also try
to manage the fund to have a
fairly constant duration, one
that's in line with its
benchmark index."

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
SPARTAN FLORIDA MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND
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 on an average size account.
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 life of
fund total returns would have been lower.

Spartan Florida Municipal 1.59% 3.33% 11.38%
Money Market Fund
All Tax-Free Money Market Funds Average 1.54% 3.20% 10.09%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, 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 all tax-free money market funds average, which reflects
the performance of 398 average all tax-free money market funds with similar
objectives tracked by IBC Financial Data, Inc. over the past six months.
(The periods covered by the IBC Financial Data, Inc. numbers are the
closest available match to those covered by the fund.)

Money Market Fund -
Tax-equivalent
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 all tax-free money market funds average as
tracked by IBC Financial Data, Inc. Or you can look at the fund's
tax-equivalent yield, which is based on an effective 1996 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.

SPARTAN FLORIDA MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Jan Bradburn, Portfolio Manager of Spartan Florida
Municipal Money Market Portfolio
Q. JAN, HOW HAS THE INVESTMENT CLIMATE CHANGED DURING THE PAST SIX MONTHS?
A. In Florida, technical factors associated with the Florida Intangible
Personal Property tax tended to have a disproportionate impact on my
investment decisions. However, those technical factors arose against a
backdrop colored by national fiscal and monetary trends. When the period
began, the Federal Reserve was in an easing mode, having lowered the
federal funds rate - the rate banks charge each other for overnight loans -
the previous July, followed by additional one-quarter percentage point cuts
in December, 1995 and January of this year. Heading into mid-winter, the
consensus among market participants was that we had not yet seen the last
of the rate cuts. The sentiment began to change when, testifying before
Congress in mid-February, Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan seemed to suggest
that the economy was doing better than expected. Then came the infamous
February employment report, which was significantly stronger than most
analysts had predicted. Since then, a string of positive indicators has
left little doubt in most analysts' minds that, for the time being, the
economy is in no need of further stimulus.
Q. WHAT WAS YOUR STRATEGY DURING THE PERIOD?
A. On December 1, 1995, when the period began, the fund had an average
maturity of 52 days. By the end of the month, as investors sought shelter
from the Florida Intangible Personal Property tax, the fund's asset base
more than doubled. Most of the new money went into variable rate demand
notes and other short-term instruments, which lowered the fund's average
maturity to 30 days. By January 31, 1996, assets had declined sharply and
the fund's average maturity was back up around 45 days. Since then, I've
let the fund's average maturity gradually roll back down, for two reasons:
to preserve flexibility in the face of rising rates and to prepare for a
supply windfall in June, when many school districts seek financing.
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
A. Better than most other tax-free money market funds over the period. The
fund's seven-day yield on May 31, 1996 was 3.22%, compared to 3.36% on
November 30, 1995. The latest yield was the equivalent of a taxable yield
of 5.03% for investors in the 36% federal tax bracket. Through May 31,
1996, the fund's six-month total return was 1.59%, compared to a total
return of 1.54% for the all tax-free money market funds average, according
to IBC Financial Data, Inc. During the 12-month period, the fund's total
return was 3.33%, compared to 3.20% for the all tax-free money market funds
average.
Q. WHAT'S THE OUTLOOK?
A. Recently released economic indicators have produced some contradictory
signals, making it unclear just how strong the economy really is. In the
absence of compelling evidence one way or the other, I think it's likely
the Fed will stand pat for a while. Certainly most experts don't expect the
Fed to lower rates again anytime soon. On the other hand, if we continue to
see evidence of strong economic performance in key indicators such as
employment, housing and consumer spending, I feel it's possible that the
Fed will choose to raise rates. Given the lack of a solid direction, I'll
probably aim to keep the fund's average maturity between 45 and 55 days -
possibly longer, depending on the supply of new issues. I believe that
gives me maximum flexibility to adapt to changing conditions.

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, 1996 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Spartan Florida Municipal Income Fund(the income fund) is a fund of
Fidelity Court Street Trust. Spartan Florida Municipal Money Market Fund
(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 financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which permit management to make
certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements.
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
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.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES - CONTINUED
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences, which may result in distribution
reclassifications, are primarily due to differing treatments for market
discount, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales,
and futures and options. 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.
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND OPTIONS. The income fund may invest in futures and
options contracts, and may also write options. 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.
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. The
market value of the securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or
forward commitment basis are identified as such in the fund's schedule of
investments. The fund may receive compensation for interest forgone in the
purchase of a delayed delivery security. Losses may arise due to changes in
the market value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does
not perform under the contract.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The funds are permitted to invest in securities that
are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These
securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration
or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these
securities may involve
2. OPERATING POLICIES -
CONTINUED
RESTRICTED SECURITIES - CONTINUED
time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable
price may be difficult. At the end of the period, restricted securities
(excluding 144A issues) amounted to $17,450,000 or 4.8% of net assets for
the money market fund. The income fund had no investments in restricted
securities.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS.
INCOME FUND. Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term
securities, aggregated $56,885,819 and $43,481,052, respectively.
The market value of futures contracts opened and closed during the period
amounted to $20,490,650 and $22,848,967, 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 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
$1,640 and $3,464 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.
5. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR has entered into arrangements on behalf of each fund with it's
custodian and transfer agent whereby interest earned on uninvested cash
balances is used to offset a portion of each fund's expenses. During the
period, the income and money market fund's expenses were reduced by $41,994
and $35,685, respectively, under these arrangements.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although stocks have managed to post solid returns through the first five
months of 1996, signs of strength in the economy have led to inflation
fears, causing some uncertainty in bond markets so far this year. In 1995,
both stock and bond markets posted strong results, while the year before,
stocks posted below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in
history.
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 during the periods shown,
the total returns would have been lower.

Money Market Funds Average
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 Connecticut tax-free money
market funds average, which reflects the performance of 11 funds with
similar objectives tracked by IBC Financial Data, Inc. over the past year.
(The periods covered by IBC Financial Data, Inc. numbers are the closest

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 Connecticut tax-free money market funds average
as tracked by IBC Financial Data, Inc. Or you can look at the fund's
tax-equivalent yield, which is based on a combined effective 1996 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
An interview with Jeff Parker,
Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Connecticut Municipal Money Market Fund
Q. JEFF, HOW HAS THE INVESTMENT CLIMATE CHANGED DURING THE PAST SIX MONTHS?
A. When the period began, the Federal Reserve was in an easing mode, having
lowered the federal funds rate - the rate banks charge each other for
overnight loans - the previous July. With inflation under control, Congress
and the White House apparently making progress toward a balanced budget
agreement, and the economy losing steam, many market participants believed
it was only a matter of time before the Fed cut interest rates again. It
therefore came as no surprise when the Fed lowered the federal funds rate
one-quarter percentage point in early December, and lowered it again by an
equal amount on the last day of January 1996.
Q. WHAT HAS CHANGED SINCE THEN?
A. When Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan, testifying before Congress in
mid-February, seemed to suggest that the economy was basically sound, the
consensus shifted and rates backed up. Then came the infamous February
employment report, which was significantly stronger than most analysts had
predicted. Since then, a string of positive indicators has left little
doubt in most analysts' minds that, for the time being, the economy is in
no need of further stimulus.
Q. HOW DID YOU RESPOND TO CHANGING CONDITIONS?
A. The fund began the period with an average maturity of 62 days. In a
declining-rate environment, it usually makes sense to lock in attractive
rates for as long as possible by extending the fund's average maturity. As
evidence mounted that the economy was not as weak as we had thought, I
sought greater flexibility by reducing the fund's average maturity. By the
time the February employment report was released in early March, the fund's
average maturity was 44 days. Since then, I've held the average maturity
relatively stable, ending the period at 45 days.
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
A. The fund's seven-day yield on May 31, 1996 was 3.13%, compared to 3.21%
on November 30, 1995. The latest yield was the equivalent of a taxable
yield of 5.11% for Connecticut investors in the 38.88% combined federal and
state tax bracket. The fund's total return during the six-month period was
1.51%. That beat the total return of 1.43% for the Connecticut tax-free
money market funds average, according to IBC Financial Data, Inc.
Q. WHAT'S THE OUTLOOK?
A. Given recent contradictory economic signals, I think it's likely the Fed
will stand pat for a while. Certainly no one expects the Fed to lower rates
again anytime soon. On the other hand, there have been ominous signs of
growing inflationary pressures in recent months. And if we continue to see
evidence of strong economic performance in key indicators such as
employment, housing and consumer spending, it's possible that the Fed will
choose to raise rates, perhaps sometime during the third quarter. Given the
lack of a solid direction, I'll probably aim to keep the fund's average
maturity about where it is right now - between 40 and 50 days. That gives
me maximum flexibility to adapt to changing conditions and take advantage
of buying opportunities as they arise.

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, 1996 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Connecticut Municipal Money Market Fund (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 financial
statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles which permit management to make certain estimates and
assumptions at the date of the financial statements. 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 .1100% 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 .40% of the fund's average net
assets.
2. OPERATING POLICIES -
CONTINUED
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.
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 $2,011 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. UMB 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. 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 $222,568 and $34,207, respectively.
For the period, the transfer a,gent fees were equivalent to an annualized
rate of .13% of the fund's average net assets.
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 $11,470.
3. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
The fund has entered into an arrangement with its transfer agent whereby
interest earned on uninvested cash balances was used to offset a portion of
the fund's expenses. During the period, the fund's transfer agent fees were
reduced by $9,844 under this arrangement.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although stocks have managed to post solid returns through the first five
months of 1996, signs of strength in the economy have led to inflation
fears, causing some uncertainty in bond markets so far this year. In 1995,
both stock and bond markets posted strong results, while the year before,
stocks posted below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in
history.
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
SPARTAN CONNECTICUT MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND
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 on an average sized account. You can also look at the fund's
income to measure performance. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain fund
expenses during the periods shown, the 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 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 Connecticut 4 Plus Year Enhanced
Municipal Bond Index, which includes Connecticut investment-grade municipal
bonds with maturities of four years or greater. To measure how the fund's
performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the
Connecticut municipal debt funds average, which reflects the performance of
24 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.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say you invested $10,000 in Spartan
Connecticut Municipal Income Fund on October 31, 1987, shortly after the
fund started. As the chart shows, by May 31, 1996, the value of your
investment would have grown to $19,316 - a 93.16% increase on your initial
investment. This assumes you still own the fund on May 31, 1996, and
therefore does not include the effect of the $5 account closeout fee. For
comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index - which
reflects the performance of the investment-grade municipal bond market -
did over the same period. With dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 would
have grown to $20,486 - a 104.86% 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.

you annualize this number, based on an average share price of $10.89 over
the past month, $11.09 over the past six months and $11.03 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% 1996 combined federal and state tax bracket but does not
reflect payment of the alternative minimum tax, if applicable.
SPARTAN CONNECTICUT MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
NOTE TO SHAREHOLDERS:
On May 13, 1996, George Fischer became portfolio manager of Spartan
Connecticut Municipal Income Fund,
replacing Maureen Newman.
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, GEORGE?
A. Fairly well, compared to its peer group. For the six-month period ended
May 31, 1996, the fund had a total return of -0.60%. For the same period,
the Connecticut municipal debt funds average, as tracked by Lipper
Analytical Services, returned -0.77%, while the Lehman Brothers Connecticut
4 Plus Year Enhanced Municipal Bond Index returned -0.40%. For the 12
months ended May 31, 1996, the fund returned 4.09%, the Lipper average
returned 3.78% and the index had a total return of 4.56%.
Q. WHAT WAS BEHIND THE RISE IN INTEREST RATES OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS?
A. I would say that the main "culprit" has been an economy that's turned
out to be stronger than most people had anticipated. Bond prices fell and,
correspondingly, rates rose. In general, the market prefers a steady,
low-growth environment. The rise certainly was not due to an uptick in
inflation; we haven't seen that happen for several years. From my
standpoint, having taken over management of the fund in May, I like the
fact that we had higher yields to work with in the market. That's because,
as long as inflation remains in check going forward, higher yields can help
make bonds more attractive investments relative to alternatives such as
stocks.
Q. ARE THERE ANY BENEFITS TO A STRONG ECONOMY FOR THE BOND MARKET?
A. Yes. A growing economy can reduce the need for municipalities to fund
various social services, for example, if more people are working and
providing for themselves. It can also help the revenue side, because more
workers and healthier corporations can generate better revenue streams for
municipalities to pay their debt. But you also have to keep in mind that
overall, there's probably more pressure on municipalities today than in the
past. The federal government is passing responsibilities down to the
states, where the resistance to taxes, especially new ones, is as strong as
ever.
Q. WHAT CHANGES HAVE YOU MADE TO THE PORTFOLIO SINCE YOU BEGAN MANAGING THE
FUND?
A. Actually, very few so far. As of the end of the period, I was still in
the process of reviewing all of the fund's holdings. Over the past few
years, the previous manager, Maureen Newman, had carefully selected
securities for the portfolio that she felt very strongly about. Like
Maureen, my background is also in credit analysis. From what I've seen, the
portfolio was, for the most part, in line with the way I would have
structured it through the end of the period.
Q. THE FUND HAD SIZABLE HOLDINGS IN EDUCATION BONDS DURING THE PERIOD.
WHAT'S YOUR PHILOSOPHY IN EVALUATING THE FUND'S POSITIONS IN THAT SECTOR?
A. It depends on the school. For instance, for schools such as the
University of Connecticut, I think it's important for me to see that the
state and its residents believe in and support the school. I look to see
whether parents are sending their kids there, whether there's a sense of
commitment to its future. I don't want to see what happened in California
happen here. That state went from being a national leader in support of
state colleges to withdrawing much of that support because of budget
pressures. A very different example is Quinnipiac College, a private
school. It's not a huge or super- wealthy school, but it's steady and
well-managed. It also has a couple of important niches - it's noted for
physical therapy and mass communications - that make it a first-choice
school for many students. So it's got a good story behind its attractive
bond yield, which gives the security some strength in a very competitive
environment.
Q. PUERTO RICO BONDS HAVE, IN THE PAST, PLAYED A KEY ROLE IN HELPING THE
FUND WEATHER DIFFICULTIES IN THE CONNECTICUT MUNICIPAL MARKET. HOW DO YOU
VIEW THEIR ROLE IN THE FUND'S PORTFOLIO?
A. Let me explain that a bit. From time to time, particularly when a state
is undergoing problems caused by budget difficulties or other problems,
Puerto Rico bonds - which are tax-exempt in every state - can be a useful
addition to the portfolio. That was the case during the previous period, as
Connecticut went through its biennial budget process. But, in general, I
plan to use them sparingly. I am looking to provide what shareholders want
most from this fund, which is tax-exempt income from Connecticut bonds.
Q. WE UNDERSTAND THERE WILL BE
SOME CHANGES TO THE FUND'S INVESTMENT POLICIES...
A. That's right. As of June 24, 1996, the fund will reserve the right to
invest up to 5% of its holdings - down from one-third - in below
investment-grade securities. The fund does not intend to seek out the
lower-quality, below investment-grade bonds. Instead, this change gives the
fund additional flexibility under unusual circumstances. Also, Fidelity
will use two additional credit agencies - Duff & Phelps Credit Rating Co.
and Fitch Investors Service, L.P., as well as Moody's Investors Service and
Standard & Poor's which the fund already uses - to determine the credit
quality of the fund's bonds.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL MONTHS?
A. I'd say that the fund is very well positioned right now for the
high-tax-bracket Connecticut investor. The municipal market overall seems
to be attractive relative to corporate and U.S. Treasury bonds, as well as
to the stock market. The previous engines of job growth in the state were
defense and financial services, and nothing has stepped in to take their
place as of yet. Given that, I think that job growth will continue to be
sluggish in Connecticut and in the Northeast in general, but that the worst
may be past. I'll need to pay special attention to national trends in
health care as they relate to the fund's holdings in hospitals, which have
performed well so far. If those credits weaken, or if they don't live up to
the market's or my own expectations, I won't hesitate to sell them and look
for other good opportunities in the state.

GEORGE FISCHER ON HIS
INVESTMENT STYLE:
"In managing a state-specific
municipal fund, the real
challenge is to give the fund's
shareholders exactly what they
want: tax-exempt income,
delivered in a way that doesn't
expose them to undue risk.
The first way that I'll do that is
to manage the fund's duration
- - that is, its sensitivity to
interest rate changes - to be
similar to that of the fund's
benchmark index. Currently,
that's about 7 1/2 years, which
means that a movement of 100
basis points in rates would
cause the net asset value to
move by around 7 or 8% in the
opposite direction. Secondly, I
look for opportunities to invest
outside of the major issuers,
which include the general
obligations of the state, special
tax obligation bonds and those
issued by the Housing Finance
Authority. I look for what I
believe is a good combination
of high income and low risk.
Fortunately, there are some
local issuers in Connecticut
that meet these criteria,
although my style is to stay
diversified and not take on very
large positions in any one
security, no matter how
attractive it looks. The other
important aspect of my style is
to take input from our
quantitative research area.
That encompasses evaluating
weightings along the yield
curve, couponing strategies,
call features and tax
implications; in short,
everything besides credit
analysis that goes into the
pricing of a bond. I anticipate
working closely with this group
to help me craft the best
portfolio I can for my
shareholders."

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
SPARTAN CONNECTICUT MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND
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 on an average sized account.
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 during the periods
shown, the total returns would have been lower.
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS

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 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 Connecticut tax-free money
market funds average, which reflects the performance of 11 Connecticut
tax-free money market funds with similar objectives tracked by IBC
Financial Data, Inc. over the past year. (The periods covered by IBC
Financial Data Inc. 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 Connecticut tax-free money market funds average
as tracked by IBC Financial Data, Inc. Or you can look at the fund's
tax-equivalent yield, which is based on a combined effective 1996 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.

SPARTAN CONNECTICUT MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Jeff Parker,
Portfolio Manager of Spartan Connecticut Municipal Money Market Fund
Q. JEFF, HOW HAS THE INVESTMENT CLIMATE CHANGED DURING THE PAST SIX MONTHS?
A. When the period began, the Federal Reserve was in an easing mode, having
lowered the federal funds rate - the rate banks charge each other for
overnight loans - the previous July. With inflation under control, Congress
and the White House apparently making progress toward a balanced budget
agreement, and the economy losing steam, many market participants believed
it was only a matter of time before the Fed cut interest rates again. It
therefore came as no surprise when the Fed lowered the federal funds rate
one-quarter percentage point in early December, and lowered it again by an
equal amount on the last day of January 1996.
Q. WHAT HAS CHANGED SINCE THEN?
A. When Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan, testifying before Congress in
mid-February, seemed to suggest that the economy was basically sound, the
consensus shifted and rates backed up. Then came the infamous February
employment report, which was significantly stronger than most analysts had
predicted. Since then, a string of positive indicators has left little
doubt in most analysts' minds that, for the time being, the economy is in
no need of further stimulus.
Q. HOW DID YOU RESPOND TO CHANGING CONDITIONS?
A. The fund began the period with an average maturity of 62 days. In a
declining-rate environment, it usually makes sense to lock in attractive
rates for as long as possible by extending the fund's average maturity. As
evidence mounted that the economy was not as weak as we had thought, I
sought greater flexibility by reducing the fund's average maturity. By the
time the February employment report was released in early March, the fund's
average maturity was 42 days. Since then, I've held the average maturity
relatively stable, ending the period at 47 days.
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
A. The fund's seven-day yield on May 31, 1996 was 3.18%, compared to 3.31%
on November 30, 1995. The latest yield was the equivalent of a taxable
yield of 5.17% for Connecticut investors in the 38.88% combined federal and
state tax bracket. The fund's total return during the six-month period was
1.56%. That beat the total return of 1.43% for the Connecticut tax-free
money market funds average, according to IBC Financial Data, Inc.
Q. WHAT'S THE OUTLOOK?
A. Given recent contradictory economic signals, I think it's likely the Fed
will stand pat for a while. Certainly no one expects the Fed to lower rates
again anytime soon. On the other hand, there have been ominous signs of
growing inflationary pressures in recent months. And if we continue to see
evidence of strong economic performance in key indicators such as
employment, housing and consumer spending, it's possible that the Fed will
choose to raise rates, perhaps sometime during the third quarter. Given the
lack of a solid direction, I'll probably aim to keep the fund's average
maturity about where it is right now - between 40 and 50 days. That gives
me maximum flexibility to adapt to changing conditions and take advantage
of buying opportunities as they arise.

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, 1996 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES.
Spartan Connecticut Municipal Income Fund (the income fund ) is a fund of
Fidelity Court Street Trust. Spartan Connecticut Municipal Money Market
Fund (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 financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which permit management to make
certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements.
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.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -
CONTINUED
These differences, which may result in distribution reclassifications, are
primarily due to differing treatments for futures and options transactions,
capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales, futures
and options and excise tax regulations.
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. The
market value of the securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or
forward commitment basis are identified as such in the fund's schedule of
investments. Each fund may receive compensation for interest forgone in the
purchase of a delayed delivery security. Losses may arise due to changes in
the market value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does
not perform under the contract.
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND OPTIONS. The income fund may use futures and options
contracts to manage its exposure to the bond market and to fluctuations in
interest rates. Buying futures, writing puts, and buying calls tend to
increase the fund's exposure to the underlying instrument. Selling futures,
buying puts, and writing calls tend to decrease the fund's exposure to the
underlying instrument, or hedge other fund investments. Futures contracts
involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the futures
variation margin reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The
underlying face amount at value of any open futures contracts at period
end, is shown in the schedule of investments under the caption "Futures
Contracts." This amount reflects each contract's exposure to the underlying
instrument at period end. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the
underlying instruments, if there is an illiquid secondary market for the
contracts, or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms.
Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day
by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Exchange-traded
options 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 $53,249,168 and $60,224,379, respectively. The
market value of futures contracts opened and closed during the period
amounted to $57,145,087 and $61,321,949, 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 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
$1,965 and $1,432 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.
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 $257 for the
income fund and no payments were made for the money market fund for the
period.
5. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR has entered into arrangements on behalf of each fund with the funds'
custodian and transfer agent whereby interest earned on uninvested cash
balances was used to offset a portion of each fund's expenses. During the
period, the each fund' s expenses were reduced by $66,383 and $7,706 for
the income and money market funds, respectively, under these arrangements.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although stocks have managed to post solid returns through the first five
months of 1996, signs of strength in the economy have led to inflation
fears, causing some uncertainty in bond markets so far this year. In 1995,
both stock and bond markets posted strong results, while the year before,
stocks posted below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in
history.
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 during the periods shown,
the total returns would have been lower.

Money Market Fund
New Jersey Tax-Free Money Market 1.45% 3.04% 14.62% n/a
Funds Average
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 New Jersey tax-free money
market funds average, which reflects the performance of 10 New Jersey
tax-free money market funds with similar objectives tracked by IBC
Financial Data, Inc. over the past six months. (The periods covered by IBC
Financial Data, Inc. 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 New Jersey tax-free money market funds average.
Or you can look at the fund's tax-equivalent yield, which is based on a
combined effective 1996 federal and state income tax rate of 40.08%.
Figures for the New Jersey tax-free money market funds average are from IBC
Financial Data, Inc.
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
An interview with Jeff Parker,
Portfolio Manager of Fidelity New Jersey Municipal Money Market Fund
Q. JEFF, HOW HAS THE INVESTMENT CLIMATE CHANGED DURING THE PAST SIX MONTHS?
A. When the period began, the Federal Reserve was in an easing mode, having
lowered the federal funds rate - the rate banks charge each other for
overnight loans - the previous July. With inflation under control, Congress
and the White House apparently making progress toward a balanced budget
agreement, and the economy losing steam, many market participants believed
it was only a matter of time before the Fed cut interest rates again. It
therefore came as no surprise when the Fed lowered the federal funds rate
one-quarter percentage point in early December, and lowered it again by an
equal amount on the last day of January 1996.
Q. WHAT HAS CHANGED SINCE THEN?
A. When Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan, testifying before Congress in
mid-February, seemed to suggest that the economy was basically sound, the
consensus shifted and rates began to climb. Then came the infamous February
employment report, which was significantly stronger than most analysts had
predicted. Since then, a string of positive indicators has left little
doubt in most analysts' minds that, for the time being, the economy is in
no need of further stimulus.
Q. HOW DID YOU RESPOND TO CHANGING CONDITIONS?
A. The fund began the period with an average maturity of 70 days. In a
declining-rate environment, it usually makes sense to try to lock in
attractive rates for as long as possible by extending the fund's average
maturity. As evidence mounted that the economy was not as weak as we had
thought, I sought greater flexibility by reducing the fund's average
maturity. By the time the February employment report was released in early
March, the fund's average maturity was 66 days. Since then, I've gradually
rolled down, ending the period at 50 days.
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
A. The fund's seven-day yield on May 31, 1996 was 3.06%, compared to 3.14%
on November 30, 1995. The latest yield was the equivalent of a taxable
yield of 5.11% for New Jersey investors in the 40.08% combined federal and
state tax bracket. The fund's total return during the six-month period was
1.48%. That beat the total return of 1.45% for the New Jersey tax-free
money market funds average, according to IBC Financial Data, Inc.
Q. WHAT'S THE OUTLOOK?
A. Given recent contradictory economic signals, I think it's likely the Fed
may just stand pat for a while. Certainly no one expects the Fed to lower
rates again anytime soon. On the other hand, there have been ominous signs
of growing inflationary pressures in recent months. And if we continue to
see evidence of strong economic performance in key indicators such as
employment, housing and consumer spending, it's possible that the Fed will
choose to raise rates, perhaps sometime during the third quarter. Given the
lack of a solid direction, I'll probably aim to keep the fund's average
maturity about where it is right now - between 45 and 55 days. That gives
me maximum flexibility to adapt to changing conditions and take advantage
of buying opportunities as they arise.

NEW INVESTMENT POLICY:
The fund is now permitted to
invest in any amount of
municipal securities that may
be considered taxable under
the alternative minimum tax
(AMT). Previously, the fund
was limited to 20%. The AMT
is an alternative method for
calculating federal income tax
liabilities and is generally
limited to individuals in high
income tax brackets. The
portfolio manager is now able
to focus on all marketplace
opportunities - including
areas dominated by AMT
securities such as student
loans and airports. This policy
change will in no way affect
the tax-exempt status of
income from the fund for
shareholders not subject to
the AMT. Investors subject to
the AMT or who are unsure
should consult a tax advisor.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended May 31, 1996 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity New Jersey Municipal Money Market Fund(the fund)(formerly Fidelity
New Jersey Tax-Free Money Market Portfolio) 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 financial statements
have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles which permit management to make certain estimates and
assumptions at the date of the financial statements. 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 .1100% 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 .40% of the fund's average net
assets.
2. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES -
CONTINUED
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.
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 $8,659 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. UMB 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. 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 $367,658 and $46,061, respectively.
For the period, the transfer agent fees were equivalent to an annualized
rate of .16% of average net assets.
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 $28,031.
3. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
The fund has entered into an arrangement with its transfer agent whereby
interest earned on uninvested cash balances was used to offset a portion of
the fund's expenses. During the period, the fund's transfer agent fees were
reduced by $3,247 under this arrangement.
