  Recent results on tau physics from BaBar are reviewed. Limits on
lepton-flavor violation in the tau decay process tau->lll are presented based
on 91.6 fb^1 of data. In all six decay modes considered, the numbers of events
found in data are compatible with the background expectations, and upper limits
on the branching fractions are set in the range (1-3) 10^-7 at 90% CL. A
preliminary measurement of the five prong branching fraction based on 110.7
fb^-1 of data is presented with the result B(tau- -> 3h- 2h+ nu) =
(8.52+/-0.09+/-0.40) 10^-4. A preliminary measurement of the tau lifetime based
on 30 fb^-1 of data is presented where a lifetime of 290.8+/-1.5+/-1.6 fs is
measured.
