The Super-Kamiokande atmospheric neutrino data suggest existence of the large lepton-flavor violating (LFV) interaction in the higher energy scale. If the minimal supersymmetric standard model is extended to have right-handed neutrinos, the left-handed sleptons in the second and third generations are expected to have the LFV masses in the minimal supergravity scenario. In this article we study the LFV signals in the left-handed slepton production at $\mu^+\mu^-$ colliders and $\e^+\e^-$ linear colliders (LC's), $\mu^+\mu^-(\e^+\e^-)\to\tau\mu +4jets + \E$ and $\mu^+\mu^-(\e^+\e^-)\to\tau\mu l+ 2jets+ \E$. The main background comes from decay of a tau lepton into a muon in the lepton-flavor conserving slepton pair production. They are significantly reduced by the energy and the impact parameter cuts for the muon. At $\mu^+\mu^-$ colliders (LC's) it may be possible to reach the mixing angle $\sin 2\theta_{\tilde{\nu}} \gsim 0.1(0.5)$ and the mass difference $\Delta m_{\tilde{\nu}}\gsim 0.1(0.4)$ GeV for the sneutrinos in the second and third generations at the statistical significance of $3\sigma$. Such small mass difference and a mixing angle may be induced radiatively even if the Yukawa coupling constant for the tau neutrino is of the order of 0.1.
