Lepton flavor violation can be induced in supersymmetry by the mixing of two or more of the leptonic scalar partners, {tilde l}{r_arrow}{tilde l}{sup {prime}}, where {tilde l},{tilde l}{sup {prime}}={tilde e},{tilde {mu}},{tilde {tau}}. Krashnikov and Arkani-Hamed {ital et al.} pointed out that this effect may be observable at the Next Linear Collider, through slepton pair production with subsequent lepton-flavor-violating (LFV) decays. If the slepton mixing involves all three generations, CP violation from the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa phase could lead to asymmetries between the observed LFV decays {tilde l}{r_arrow}{tilde l}{sup {prime}} and {bar {tilde l}}{r_arrow}{bar {tilde l}}{sup {prime}}. We lay down the formalism and give simple expressions for the CP-violating asymmetry in the transition probabilities, and consider possible signals at future colliders. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
