New York Attorney General Letitia James has agreed to delay the depositions of former President Donald Trump and two of his kids, Ivanka and Donald Trump Jr., the New York Post is reporting.

James' office and attorneys for the Trump family reached agreement to postpone testimony until a decision is made regarding an appeal over their testifying.

"In the interest of efficiency for both the parties and the court, and to allow time for the First Department [appeals court] to hear the appeal, we have therefore agreed to the attached Stipulation and Proposed Order to extend the time for the Trump Respondents to appear for testimony until two weeks after a decision by the First Department," Kevin Wallace, an attorney in James' office wrote to a judge in the case.

"This extension would avoid the need for separate briefing over an application by the Trump Respondents for an interim stay during the pendency of the appeal. Given the expedited merits briefing we believe a stipulated extension of the testimony date will promote judicial economy without causing undue delay."

The Hill noted as a part of James' probe into the business practices of the Trump Organization, James' office confirmed to the news outlet in January that they had subpoenaed Trump and his two oldest children.

Last month, a judge ruled that all three had to comply with the subpoenas.
