Judge Orders Immediate Arrest of Enoch Burke After Fresh Breach of School Injunction

The High Court acted after he returned to Wilson’s Hospital School days after a conditional release to prepare a disciplinary appeal challenge.

Overview

  • Mr Justice Brian Cregan directed gardaí to arrest Burke and bring him before the High Court on Monday for a committal hearing.
  • The court was told Burke was at the school again on Friday and briefly stepped past the boundary before security stopped him.
  • Burke was released from Mountjoy Prison on Wednesday solely to prepare his challenge to the Disciplinary Appeals Panel, on condition he not trespass at the school.
  • He went to the school within 24 hours of release on Thursday, leading the court to grant short‑notice attachment and committal proceedings at the school’s request.
  • The employment appeal over his 2022 conduct remains active as his repeated breaches have resulted in more than 560 days in custody and strong judicial censure.
