Justice Madan B Lokur re-appointed as Fiji's Supreme Court judge

In 2019, it was the first time that an Indian was appointed as the judge of the apex court of another country

Former Judge of Supreme Court of India Justice Madan B Lokur has been re-appointed as a judge of the non-resident panel of the Supreme Court of Fiji.

Justice Lokur was first sworn in as judge of the Supreme Court of Fiji in August 2019. It was the first time that an Indian was appointed as the judge of the top court of another country.

With effect from 21 January 2022, Justice Lokur's second term is for three years.

President of the Republic of Fiji, Ratu Wiliame M Katonivere did the re-appointment upon the recommendation of the Judicial Services Commission and the endorsement of the Attorney-General.

The Constitution of the Republic of Fiji states, "The judges of the Supreme Court, the Justices of Appeal and the judges of the High Court are appointed by the President on the recommendation of the Judicial Services Commission following consultations with the Attorney-General."

Justice Lokur was earlier a judge of the Supreme Court of India in 2012. He demitted office in 2018. Prior to that, he was Chief Justice of the Guwahati High Court and the Andhra Pradesh High Court.
