The Manhattan grand jury weighing whether to indict former President Donald Trump will again not hear evidence, deliberate or vote Thursday in the Stormy Daniels “hush money” case, court officials told The Post.

The panel — which has been convening on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays — will meet, but to hear evidence in an unrelated case, the sources said.

The jurors did not meet Wednesday — as they were scheduled to — after Trump’s rebuttal witness, attorney Robert Costello, testified for a number of hours Monday. The afternoon session was unexpectedly canceled by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, sources told The Post.

The grand jury is scheduled to reconvene to weigh the Trump case on Monday, according to Insider and ABC News.

The panel has been hearing witness testimony and weighing other evidence related to a $130,000 payment made to porn star Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 presidential election.
