A newly constituted appeals committee, due to hear Enoch Burke's appeal of his dismissal by Wilson's Hospital school, had to be postponed after the teacher sought a review of a Court of Appeal decision, the High Court has heard.

Also formal orders seeking the jailing for contempt of his mother, Martina, brother Isaac and sister Ammi, as well as Mr Burke himself, over their conduct in court in recent weeks when they repeatedly interrupted proceedings, are to be considered, Mr Justice Brian Cregan indicated on Wednesday.
