Enoch Burke's dispute with school over gender issue continues as judgment is reserved at appeal

The Court of Appeal has reserved its decision on Enoch Burke's application to set aside orders directing him to stay away from Wilson Hospital's school following his paid suspension from his teaching post.

Mr Burke claims that the orders, which underpin a finding that he was in contempt of court resulting in his incarceration for 108 days, are unconstitutional, invalid and should be set aside.

His failure to stay away from the school, currently on mid-term break, following his release resulted in the High Court imposing a daily €700 fine until he purges his ongoing contempt.
