#EnochBurke is at the end of the legal road. The extremist #transphobe religious fanatic has no more routes to appeal.
His appeal against dismissal was rejected 'cos he made no case, preferring to disrupt the hearing. #IrishTimes: https://archive.is/xHWh5
The Appeals Ccourt rejected his attempt to appeal the injunction keeping him off schol grounds.
And the High Court warned Burke he stays in prison until he purges his contempt. No more release for school holidays.

Delusional religious extremist #EnochBurke is to stay in prison. #IrishTimes https://archive.is/QOtPO
Today, the fanatical #transphobe declined the opportunity to purge his #ContemptOfCourt, repeating his fantasy that he was not trespassing at #WilsonsHospital school, despite a court order to stay away. Burke appeared in the #HighCourt #IEHC by video link, so was unable to disrupt the court.
Burke has already spent a total of >650 days in prison. He will reappear in court in 4 weeks.
#EnochBurke appears to be about to get what he wanted: disciplinary appeal concluded against him, without hearing his case.
Instead of presenting his case, the #transphobic extremist ex-teacher today chose his old game of shouting down the meeting until he was removed.
Since there was no appeal to assess, the appeal will be dismissed. Tthe #BurkeFamily will lie and lie and yell "unfair", but the legal battle will be over. Burke's salary will stop.
#IrishTimes report: https://archive.is/emzDE
In #Castlebar, few people want to go on the record about the #BurkeFamily.
The town's fundamentalist fugitives #MartinaBurke and #AmmiBurke are nowhere to be seen. The duo are sentenced to a fortnight of imprisonment for #ContemptOfCourt, like Ammi's brother #EnochBurke who is held indefinitely held for repeated #trespass.
#JusticeCregan called it a "family circus". Who wants to be caught up in that?
Report by Áine Ryan in The #IrishTimes: https://archive.is/qDld5 /https://www.irishtimes.com/crime-law/courts/2026/03/05/in-burke-country-many-people-have-a-lot-of-time-for-the-family-but-want-to-keep-their-heads-down/
3 of the #BurkeFamily now in prison. https://archive.is/SIeBx #IrishTimes
Jailed teacher #EnochBurke’s mother Martina and sister Ammi were in contempt of court by their behaviour during a hearing on 20th February. Both were imprisoned for 2 weeks.
Justice Brian Cregan called for an end to the Burke “family circus”. He intends to formally complain to the Law Society about solicitor Ammi Burke; and that Ammi, Martina & Isaac Burke may only attend future court hearings remotely.
European #fascism drew heavily on the symbolism, techniques, and goals of the #USA's rightwing. #FintanOToole eloquently punctures the myth that fascism is a European concept misapplied to American politics.
#oToole is well past his peak, but this is is an important framing of #Trump and #MAGA.
