A judge has granted an Interim Barring Order (IBO) to a man to have his wife, and mother of their children, removed from the family home after the man found her smoking crack cocaine with a pipe in their bedroom with their three-year-old boy present in the home.

At the Family Law Court in Ennis, Judge Alec Gabbett granted the IBO to the man after the man told the judge: “I don’t feel safe and I don’t feel safe for my kids.”
