There's no way you could envisage this type of scenario though. Absolutely no way.
Absolutely correct. Same way the family of that poor girl Sally Maaz could have envisaged what they'd have to endure the day of her inquest.

Burke family are the essence of human dirt.

... the February inquest into the death of Sally Maaz. On several occasions during the two-day inquest, as the grieving Maaz family watched on quietly, there were heated exchanges between the Burke family and the coroner for Mayo, Patrick O’Connor. At one stage Martina Burke told the coroner: “You are not invincible, let me tell you.” She later interjected that the inquest was a “whitewash”.
Acting under Sections 6 and 8 of the Public Order Act 1994, gardaí removed Martina, Josiah and Jemima from the courthouse. As he was led away, Josiah roared that the court was “a sham” and a “disgrace”. The family proceeded to film for their social media outside the coroner’s court, accusing witnesses of lying and describing the hospital as “wicked”.

Superintendent Joe McKenna later apologised to the Maaz family for having to “endure” the behaviour of the Burkes. The Maaz family, says one source, “had no involvement and want no involvement” in the disruption to the hearing. A verdict on their daughter’s death is due in the inquest at Swinford courthouse next Monday.

Enoch Burke is in “egregious disobedience” of a court order not to attend at a Co Westmeath school and must pay €23,800 in fines by March 23rd next, a High Court judge has ruled.
The school may apply to enforce payment of the fines by means such as seeking orders over Mr Burke’s assets, Mr Justice Brian O’Moore said.
He said the €23,800 figure was based on fines of €700 daily imposed from January 27th to March 1st but warned that fines of €700 daily have, and will, continue to accrue until he purges his contempt of court orders not to attend at Wilson’s Hospital School.
In considering whether the daily fine should be increased, the judge said he had concluded there are two possible reasons for Mr Burke’s continuing contempt of the orders.
The first was that the fines are “too low” and the second is that Mr Burke does not really believe they will ever be enforced, he said.

What's the point? He's never paying them.

They might go after his or his family's assets

His assets yes but unless he has tried to transfer his to them to hide them they won’t be able to go after his.

The whole thing’s a circus.

Burke disobeyed instructions of his employer, therefore I would say legally it's between him and the school only.
