School teacher Enoch Burke has been granted leave of the High Court to notify the three-member Disciplinary Appeals Panel of his intention to seek a temporary injunction restraining them from issuing their recommendation in his appeal against his dismissal from Wilson’s Hospital School.

Burke’s application will be heard on Thursday which, if granted, will in all probability be followed by an application for a permanent High Court restraint on them taking any further steps in his appeal.
