Travellers in Bolton who were evicted from their permanent site in Moses Gate as a result of a closure order are to make another attempt to get it overturned.
Bolton Council alongside Greater Manchester Police issued an order to remove residents from the Crompton Lodge camp in Moses Gate.
Travellers were evicted last month and the closure order means that anyone who visits the site can be prosecuted.
The order was approved by a court, and an appeal to overturn this came before Bolton Crown Court this week.
The appeal was due to be heard over three days next week, however this was not possible due to the lack of availability among staff at Bolton Council, who are the respondents to the Travellers' appeal.
The court heard that a psychiatrist will be giving evidence on the impact on the 30 children who have been removed and who used to live at Crompton Lodge.
Judge Martin Walsh fixed a hearing for September.
He said the intention of the legislation surrounding closure orders was that cases were heard promptly, so forced the case to be heard as soon as possible.

In the aftermath of the eviction some travellers have opted to leave Bolton, with one moving in with a relative in Accrington.
However a large number have set up camps across Bolton, with them moving regularly between different areas.
Caravans have been seen in Breightmet, Darcy Lever and Little Lever.
This week travellers emerged in Suffolk Close Park, Little Lever, where one resident said they would keep moving in the same manner until they are allowed to return to the Moses Gate.
Bolton Council has said support for the travellers includes access to reserved temporary accommodation and measures to ensure there is no disruption to school attendance among the children.
But travellers have claimed they have nowhere to go following the eviction.
The ones who have stayed in Bolton have insisted they will remain in the area in order to keep the kids in school.
