FILE - In this Friday, Jan. 6, 2017, file photo, Roy Cooper is ceremonially sworn in as Governor of North Carolina by Chief Justice Mark Martin during a ceremony at the Executive Mansion in Raleigh, N.C. Cooper's daughters from left, Hilary, Natalie and Claire look on. A North Carolina court has temporarily blocked a state law passed by the GOP-controlled legislature that strips the Democratic governor of his some of his powers. A three-judge panel released the order Wednesday, Feb. 8, 2017, just before state senators scheduled a hearing with the secretary of Cooper's veterans' affairs department to come before a committee to answer questions.
