Enoch Burke faces jail again as school lodges fresh High Court application

Enoch Burke faces the prospect of being jailed again after Wilson’s Hospital School lodged a fresh High Court application over his alleged trespassing at the Co Westmeath school. Burke was formally dismissed from his position at the school in May for gross misconduct. He maintains that he was not validly dismissed, and continues to seek his reinstatement through the courts. Lawyers for the school told Judge Brian Cregan on Tuesday that Burke had trespassed on various occasions since the beginning of the academic year, in breach of a court order.
