DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although financial turmoil in Pacific Basin countries was a catalyst
for significant volatility in U.S. markets in late October and into
November, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index has risen more than 31%
year-to-date, almost three times its historical annual average.
Meanwhile, bond markets - primarily influenced by a relatively steady
flow of positive news on the inflation front - continued to post solid
returns through the first 11 months of 1997.
While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets
with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that
can help investors plan for their future needs.
First, investors are encouraged to take a long-term view of their
portfolios. If you can afford to leave your money invested through the
inevitable up and down cycles of the financial markets, you will
greatly reduce your vulnerability to any single decline. We know from
experience, for example, that stock prices have gone up over longer
periods of time, have significantly outperformed other types of
investments and have stayed ahead of inflation.
Second, you can further manage your investing risk through
diversification. A stock mutual fund, for instance, is already
diversified, because it invests in many different companies. You can
increase your diversification further by investing in a number of
different stock funds, or in such other investment categories as
bonds. You should also keep money you'll need in the near future in a
more stable investment.
Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a
certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or
quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing
so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising
market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this
strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or
protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you
lower the average cost of your purchases.
If you have questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We are
available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to provide you the
information you need to make the investments that are right for you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
To evaluate a money market fund's historical performance, you can look
at either total return or yield. Total return reflects the change in
the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of the fund's
dividend 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 life of fund total return would have been
lower.

CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage
terms over a set period - in this case, one year, five years or since
the fund started on March 17, 1988. For example, if you had 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
municipal money market funds with similar objectives tracked by IBC
Financial Data, Inc. The past one year average represents a peer group
of 13 money market funds. (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
1997 federal and state income tax rate of 40.08%. A portion of the
fund's income may be subject to the alternative minimum tax. 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 would
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 Scott Orr, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity New Jersey
Municipal Money Market Fund
Q. SCOTT, WHAT WAS THE INVESTING ENVIRONMENT LIKE OVER THE PAST 12
MONTHS?
A. During the first several months of the period, investors tried to
figure out when the Federal Reserve Board might raise the fed funds
rate, which is the rate banks charge each other for overnight loans.
Over that period, data showed growth in the economy, but the pace of
that growth was inconsistent and there were no signs of inflation. As
a result, the Fed kept the fed funds rate steady at 5.25%. In February
and March, however, signs that the economy was growing at a stronger
clip changed market sentiment. Expectations of a rate increase
culminated in the Fed's announcement at its March 25 meeting that it
had increased the fed funds rate from 5.25% to 5.50%. For the next
month or so, the market expected the Fed to continue to raise rates.
However, at its May meeting, the Fed decided to hold off because
economic growth had moderated and inflation was still benign.
Q. WHAT'S HAPPENED SINCE THEN?
A. Economic activity was moderate to fairly strong, but inflation
remained in check. The Fed opted to keep rates unchanged, but remained
biased toward raising rates if signs of stronger inflation emerge. In
fact, in mid-October, several Fed officials made comments indicating
that they were thinking of raising rates in order to slow the economy.
However, that was before economic and market turmoil hit Southeast
Asia in late October and continued through November. Because of this
instability in the global financial markets, it now appears that the
Fed will hold off raising rates in order to avoid roiling the markets
and causing more anxiety. As a result, most market participants feel
the Fed will wait until the market disruption in Asia moderates before
deciding if a strong U.S. domestic economy still warrants a rate
increase.
Q. WHAT WAS THE FUND'S STRATEGY DURING THIS PERIOD?
A. For most of the period, the environment was one in which we
expected rates to be higher in the ensuing months. As a result, part
of our strategy was to invest in variable-rate securities because they
move up or down with changes in interest rates. At the same time, we
sought to buy fixed-rate notes when they were expected to provide a
higher yield than variable-rate securities over the terms of the
notes. In the New Jersey market, fixed-rate instruments often offer a
yield advantage over variable-rate notes because there is much
stronger demand for the latter. As a result of focusing more on
longer-term, fixed-rate securities in order to pick up extra yield,
the fund tended to maintain an average maturity in the 60-70 day
range. Since September, though, the maturity has come down somewhat
because variable-rate securities and new short-term issues became more
attractive. As a result, the average maturity was down to 50 days as
of November 30.
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
A. The fund's seven-day yield on November 30, 1997, was 3.24%,
compared to 3.19% six months ago. The more recent seven-day yield was
the equivalent of a 5.41% taxable rate of return for New Jersey
investors in the 40.08% combined state and federal income tax bracket.
Through November 30, 1997, the fund's 12-month total return was 3.03%,
compared to 3.00% for the New Jersey tax-free money market funds
average, according to IBC Financial Data, Inc.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
A. Over the next several months, I believe the Fed will still be
biased toward raising rates, and that it is looking for reasons to do
so. At this point, the Fed has held off raising rates in spite of the
strength of the economy, because inflation has remained under control
and the uncertainty created in global financial markets from the
fallout in Asia has continued. With any inkling of inflationary
pressures, however, I believe the Fed would pull the trigger and raise
the fed funds rate at least one more time. As a result, I'm managing
the fund with the expectation that that will happen, although the
timing of a rate increase is unclear. A rate increase in the next few
months may help the U.S. economy, but it might send the worldwide
financial markets into an uproar. Therefore, I think the Fed would
like Asian markets to stabilize before it takes action.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended November 30, 1997
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity New Jersey 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. OPERATING POLICIES.
MUNICIPAL CENTRAL CASH FUND. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by
the Securities and Exchange Commission(the SEC), the fund may invest
in the Municipal Central Cash Fund (the Cash Fund) managed by FMR
Texas Inc. an affiliate of Fidelity Management & Research Company
(FMR). The Cash Fund is an open-end money market fund available only
to investment companies and other accounts managed by FMR and its
affiliates. The Cash Fund seeks preservation of capital, liquidity,
and current income by investing in high-quality, short-term municipal
securities of various states and municipalities. Income distributions
from the Cash Fund are declared daily and paid monthly from net
interest income. Income distributions received by the fund are
recorded as interest income in the accompanying financial statements.
2. OPERATING POLICIES -
CONTINUED
DELAYED DELIVERY TRANSACTIONS. The fund may purchase or sell
securities on a delayed delivery 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. With respect to purchase commitments, the fund identifies
securities as segregated in its custodial records with a value at
least equal to the amount of the commitment. 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 fund is 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 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 $33,900,000 or 7.0% of net assets.
3. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, 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. The annual individual fund fee rate is .25%. 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. For the period,
the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of .39% 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.
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 Company,
Inc. (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

FEES - CONTINUED
out-of-pocket expenses. For the period, FSC received transfer agent
and accounting fees amounting to $831,528 and $93,106, respectively.
For the period, the transfer agent fees were equivalent to an annual
rate of .18% of average net assets.
Shareholders participating in the Fidelity Ultra Service
Account(registered trademark) Program (the Program) paid 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 $33,909. Effective September 1, 1997, the monthly fee was
eliminated.
4. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR has entered into an arrangement on behalf of the fund with the
fund's transfer agent whereby credits realized as a result of
uninvested cash balances were used to reduce a portion of the fund's
expenses. During the period, the fund's expenses were reduced by
$6,468 under this arrangement.
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Trustees of Fidelity Court Street Trust II and the Shareholders
of Fidelity New Jersey Municipal Money Market Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities
of Fidelity Court Street Trust II: Fidelity New Jersey Municipal Money
Market Fund, including the schedule of portfolio investments, as of
November 30, 1997, and the related statement of operations for the
year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of
the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights
for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial
statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the
fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements and financial highlights based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 1997 by
correspondence with the custodian. An audit also includes assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Fidelity Court Street Trust II: Fidelity New
Jersey Municipal Money Market Fund as of November 30, 1997, the
results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its
net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the
financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then
ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
