N&O lawyers press attorney general on court records

"Lawyers for The News & Observer have asked state Attorney General Roy Cooper to abide by state law and order his staff to make dozens of court documents that were sealed Tuesday available for a reporter's inspection.

Hugh Stevens and Amanda Martin, lawyers for The N&O, reminded Cooper of the statute that he helped draft when he served as a member of the state General Assembly. Stevens and Martin wrote to Cooper that his staff violated the law by asking for a seal."
