Masters of the High Court are judges authorised by the Fijian Constitution to sit on the High Court. Unlike the more senior puisne judges, who sit on both the High Court and the Court of Appeal, Masters of the High Court sit only on the High Court.

The first master of the High Court of Fiji was Mr Janmai Jay Udit. This was reported in the Attorney Generals Legal Lali and website. He was appointed in 2005. His appointment was revoked on abrogation of the 1997 constitution on 10 April 2009 together with all other judges, and magistrates.
