Through his lawyer, Fepulea'i pleaded guilty to one count of assaulting the complainant at a function in December.
However, he denied three charges including one count each of actual bodily harm, grievous bodily harm and armed with a dangerous weapon.
The court then set the trial date for the week commencing 23 April.
Fepulea'i is currently on leave with pay to await the outcome of criminal case.
