With the general election drawing close, the former president still faces a handful of unresolved cases.

The Trump campaign ramped up legal spending in August as the candidate’s court battles continue in multiple venues.

On Sept. 20, three committees associated with former President Donald Trump’s 2024 run for the Oval Office released financial disclosures with the Federal Election Commission (FEC). The filings showed three committees paid a total of about $2 million in legal fees in August.

According to FEC records, the Trump campaign and its financial allies paid more than $27.5 million in legal fees in August, much higher than the $540,000 spent in July.

In August, the qualified leadership political action committee Save America covered most of Trump’s legal expenses. It paid about $1.9 million to various firms for legal consulting or reimbursements for legal expenses.

According to FEC disclosures, the principal campaign committee of Donald J. Trump for President 2024 Inc. and the super PAC Make America Great Again Inc. spent a much smaller amount, about $145,000.

Moreover, Save America told the FEC it ended August with $3.7 million in debts. Nearly all of the debts are for legal services.

In August, Save America raised just $2,137 while spending about $2.4 million. The group entered September with about $4.8 million in cash on hand.

With only weeks remaining until the general election in November, Trump is still dealing with a number of unresolved legal troubles.

He is facing a federal election case related to the events of Jan. 6, 2021, in Washington, and a case in Georgia alleging he was involved in a scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 election in that state. A case related to Trump’s handling of classified documents was dismissed, but has been appealed by the prosecution, special counsel Jack Smith.

Additionally, Trump has yet to be sentenced in a New York business case in which a jury convicted him of multiple felonies. On Sept. 6, New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan said he will not sentence Trump until after the 2024 presidential election.

In August, Trump was removed from a civil complaint filed by Black Lives Matter D.C. and others initially filed in June 2020. The U.S. Department of Justice removed Trump and substituted itself in his place because, according to a court notice, Trump was acting within the scope of his office on the day of the events at the center of the case.

The former president denies any wrongdoing and has repeatedly called the charges against him politically motivated.
