Donald Trump’s lawyers Friday asked an appeals court to halt the $250 million Civil Fraud Trial that began this week against the former president.

Trump, 77, had separately filed a notice of appeal Wednesday seeking to overturn a bombshell ruling from Justice Arthur Engoron that sided with New York Attorney General Letitia James on one of her main fraud claims against the real-estate tycoon.

Engoron — who is deciding on the Manhattan Trial rather than a jury –found that the 45th president was liable for fraud when he exaggerated the value of his assets for years.

As part of the summary judgment ruling, Engoron also revoked some of Trump’s business licenses in the Empire State and said a receiver needed to be appointed to oversee the winding down of those companies.

Meanwhile, the trial went forward in the Manhattan Supreme Court on the remaining claims and to determine how much Trump should pay for the fraud — which the AG says should be at least $250 million.

But Trump is asking the Appellate Division, First Department to put the entire trial on hold until a decision is reached on his appeal.

The former commander-in-chief attended the first two days of the trial with his son Eric Trump — a senior vice president of the Trump Organization and a defendant in the case.

The pair were also present for the first half of the trial Wednesday before Trump headed to Mar-a-Lago in the afternoon.

He has said he will testify when the AG’s Office calls him to the witness stand, which could be several weeks from now as he’s listed as the 27th witness.

The majority of the first four days of the trial so far has consisted of testimony from ex-Trump accountant Donald Bender of Mazars USA who was questioned about Trump’s yearly statements of financial condition.

James’ office claims that Trump lied on these statements from 2011 through 2021, exaggerating his wealth for vanity — to move up on Forbes’ list of billionaires — and to get an edge on insurance and loan terms.

Trump has vigorously maintained his innocence and has repeatedly slammed the case as a politically motivated “witch hunt” and “a sham.”

During his days at the 60 Centre St. courthouse, Trump has taken every opportunity in the press to personally attack James, Engoron, and even Engoron’s court clerk — prompting a partial gag order in the case.

The AG fired back Wednesday afternoon, saying she wouldn’t be bullied and noting “the Trump show is over.”

On Thursday, an embattled Trump asked a DC judge to throw out federal charges accusing him of interfering in the 2020 election result.

He also filed a motion to toss the Manhattan district attorney’s criminal “hush money” case on the same day and tried to have his classified documents trial postponed.
