donald trump <u+2019>s campaign is disputing that it owes a substantial amount of money to a pollster. the campaign said in its latest filing with the federal election commission it was contesting $766,756.67 that pollster fabrizio, lee & associates, llc said it was owed. the nature of the dispute is unclear. the campaign and the polling firm didn<u+2019>t respond to requests for comment. a spokesman for mr. trump told the washington post that the disputed debt is an <u+201c>administrative issue that we<u+2019>re resolving internally.<u+201d> mr. trump and his company have held back at times on paying vendors, lawyers and others who provided services,<u+00a0>resulting in legal disputes over payments documented by the wall street journal and others. business experts said that while disputing invoices isn<u+2019>t uncommon, mr. trump<u+2019>s aggressive use of the tactic stood out in the business world. mr. trump told the journal earlier this year that while he pays the vast majority of his bills in full and on time, he sometimes doesn<u+2019>t pay businesses when he isn<u+2019>t happy with their work. <u+201c>if they do a good job, i won<u+2019>t cut them at all,<u+201d> he said. larry noble, general counsel for the campaign legal center, said campaigns sometimes protest bills from vendors if there is a dispute over services provided, but the size of the trump campaign<u+2019>s dispute with fabrizio is unusual. write to alexandra berzon at alexandra.berzon@wsj.com
