Teacher Enoch Burke denied stay for disciplinary hearing while incarcerated for contempt.
Teacher Enoch Burke has been denied a stay to halt his disciplinary hearing over his 2023 dismissal from Wilson’s Hospital School, as the Court of Appeal ruled the hearing may proceed despite his incarceration for contempt of court.
Burke, who has been in prison over 500 days for breaching a restraining order, argued conflicting Court of Appeal rulings on whether his religious beliefs or a pronoun directive were central to his dismissal created a prejudicial conflict.
The court rejected his claim, stating the prior judgments were not binding facts and the disciplinary panel could ensure a fair process.
The hearing is set to continue as scheduled.
