RTÉ's Órla O'Donnell on the jailing of #EnochBurke's mother #MartinaBurke and sister #AmmiBurke for #ContemptOfCourt.
Judge Cregan said it was "long past time for the court to call a halt to this family circus".
He said the Burkes had been treated with great forbearance by the courts but the situation where ten gardaí had to be present in court during Burke-related cases was completely abnormal and could not continue.

3 of the #BurkeFamily now in prison. https://archive.is/SIeBx #IrishTimes
Jailed teacher #EnochBurke’s mother Martina and sister Ammi were in contempt of court by their behaviour during a hearing on 20th February. Both were imprisoned for 2 weeks.
Justice Brian Cregan called for an end to the Burke “family circus”. He intends to formally complain to the Law Society about solicitor Ammi Burke; and that Ammi, Martina & Isaac Burke may only attend future court hearings remotely.

It's interesting to watch how even the #DailyMail's coverage leads with the firm putdowns of #EmochBurke by #CreganJ. See https://archive.is/JSiPz / https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-15477229/Teacher-Enoch-Burke-returned-Mountjoy-Prison-contempt-court.html
Note how the headline in the print edition has been toned down online, but the text remains that supplied by the #newswire, and retains Cregan's comments.

Solicitor #TerryGorry provides another of his clear explanations of the judgments by #CreganJ on the #EnochBurke case.

This is #MrJusticeBrianCregan's fourth judgment in the #EnochBurke case. #2026IEHC31 https://tinyurl.com/2026-IEHC-31
#CreganJ's judgments have been notable for their directness and clarity. They appear to have written in recognition of the need for clear, #plainEnglish rebuttals of the strategic bombardment of lies from the serially disruptive#BurkeFamily.

SHORT THREAD: On Monday, extremist #transphobe #EnochBurke was returned to prison for continued #ContemptOfCourt, by #trespass at #WilsonsHospital school.
At the #HighCourt #IEHC, #MrJusticeCregan released his written judgment on Tuesday. #CreganJ was again blunt about Burke's "performative nonsense", "avalanche of lies", and legal self-harm.
CreganJ repeated that "Burke has the keys to his own prison"; and can be released if he promises not to trespass.

@christineburns #CreganJ's three judgments on #EnochBurke are well worth reading. I think they are exceptionally fine. See

@christineburns in every one of his 3 judgments, #CreganJ has very carefully written clearly structured judgments in plain English. They are written to be readable as self-contained texts, with no need to refer to other documents, and they are all easily clipped for social media. There is no slip in legal standards, but Cregan has massively raised the court's standard of public communications.

@christineburns The most interesting development in Ireland has been Mr Justice Brian Cregan's taking over of the High Court #IEHC case.
#CreganJ has adapted to the social media age, after explicitly identifying the case as a sustained atrack on the rule of law. He has taken a zero-tolerance to abuse of the court, and prevented the exploitation of the courts as a stage for theatrics.
