His appearance was to facilitate examination of the last prosecution witness, former SP (CBI) Patna V S K Kaumudi, now commissioner (security) in Hyderabad.
Stringent security was provided to the RJD chief who is in the 'Z' plus category. He was driven to the court in a bullet-proof car from Beur jail.
The RJD chief had arrived on December three in judicial remand from Ranchi.
The DA case relates to Laloo Yadav having accumulated over Rs 4.7 million disproportionate to his known sources of income when he was chief minister between 1990 and 1997.
Meanwhile, Patna civil surgeon Dr A K Mishra on Friday described Laloo's condition as 'better'.
A team of experts from the Patna Medical College Hospital examined Laloo Yadav at the jail and chest and cervical x-rays were taken, Dr Mishra said.
"At this stage, there is no need to shift the RJD supremo to a hospital. We are taking care of his health in the best possible way," the civil surgeon said.
Laloo fell ill after he was brought to Patna from Ranchi on December three. He is suffering from bronchitis and spondylitis.
Laloo Yadav has to return to Ranchi for appearance before designated CBI judge Ranchi H C Mishra on December 10 in case no 47A/96 relating to fraudulent withdrawal of Rs 1.37 billion by Bihar AHD officials from the Dorandra treasury.
