Teacher Defies Court Order, Remains Jailed

About this episode

Enoch Burke, a jailed teacher, defies a court order regarding pronoun use and awaits a decision on his appeal.

Enoch Burke, a jailed teacher, refuses to comply with a court order barring him from Wilsons Hospital School in County Westmeath. Burke, an evangelical Christian, was suspended and fired for not using a students preferred name and pronouns. He has spent over six hundred days in prison for defying the order. In a recent hearing, Burke argued that schools cant force pronoun use and that his dismissal process was unfair. The judge maintained the order, adjourned the case, and left the door open for Burke to comply. Burkes late appeal bid awaits a decision from the Court of Appeal.
