(21st Chief Justice of Fiji) Daniel Fatiaki served as the Chief Justice of Fiji from August 2002 to December 2008. In this role, he oversaw the High Court and the Supreme Court but was prohibited from involvement with the Appeal Court due to constitutional restrictions.

The investigation into the allegations was terminated in December 2008 as part of an agreement that led to his formal resignation.
