Gov. Mark Sanford of South Carolina will face formal ethics charges on 37 counts of using his office for personal financial gain, according to a list of accusations issued Monday by the State Ethics Commission.

The charges include spending state money on business-class plane tickets, instead of flying coach; using state aircraft to attend political and personal events, like the birthday party of a campaign donor; and using his campaign fund for noncampaign expenses, like a ticket to President Obama’s inauguration.

The list, citing incidents from September 2005 to April 2009, provides the first details of the accusations that the Ethics Commission will pursue after a wide-ranging review of Mr. Sanford’s travel and financial records. The commission’s nine members are appointed by the governor.

A separate impeachment resolution has been filed in the Legislature, but the ethics panel and the legislative action so far deal with different accusations. The ethics panel reviewed accusations of misuse of public resources; the impeachment resolution deals with Mr. Sanford’s secret trip to Argentina in June to visit a woman with whom he was having an extramarital affair.
