The 44th Legislature of the Haitian Parliament held office from April 22, 1817 to March 31, 1822. It was the first bicameral parliament, introduced by the Revised Constitution of 1806 under President Alexandre Pétion. It succeeded the 1st unicameral Senate of Haiti and only governed southern Haiti until 1820, when the northern Kingdom of Haiti was overthrown in a coup and reintegrated under the government in Port-au-Prince.
