(Reuters) -A federal appeals court on Monday blocked U.S. President Donald Trump from removing Democratic members from two federal labor boards, setting aside its earlier ruling.

In a 7-4 vote, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit vacated a March 28 ruling by a three-judge panel of the same court.

The earlier ruling paused rulings by two judges who deemed unlawful the removal by Trump of Cathy Harris from the Merit Systems Protection Board and Gwynne Wilcox from the National Labor Relations Board.
