The board of management of Wilson's Hospital School wants to be joined as a notice party in jailed teacher Enoch Burke's latest High Court action over the membership of a panel which will hear his appeal against dismissal from the school.

Mr Burke has been jailed for contempt of court for a number of periods totalling almost 600 days because he has repeatedly trespassed on school property in breach of court orders.
