I was wondering if it was legal to cut services that will not interfere with them "living" here until the deadline for certain things since I'm not receiving any further rent or food stamps from them?
The things I'd like to cut are; the service to the cable box in their bedroom only, the internet service to the main house computer, and like labeling our food and them to label theirs etc and making them buy and prepare their own separate meals? To be honest id like to make "uncomfortable" so they hopefully leave sooner then the 28-29 days they have left, because they are continuously trying to start arguments etc @ this point, but I still want to be "legal" about everything! Thanks again

If these were provided in the rent before, they have to continue though the end of their rent.

This has my curiosity piquéd. Were they giving you food stamps? If so, you do realize that is against the law don't you?

They living in my house I let her get her own cable box for her room, we have wifi in our house that they had access to, and previously we all ate meals etc together family style through out the time they've live here both before and after they began paying rent etc these were never specified and being attached to their rent payment.so would these be considered provided in rent etc or can I disconnect?? And now since I've served this notice I doubt I will be receiving anymore rent, does that make a difference??

Its not the way that ended up sounding, they would eat food we bought etc and they'd buy food etc that wed eat. Basically just sharing the household grocery bill because like I said we ate family style, wed make a large meal etc and eat together regardless of who's food it was or who bought what. Now I just want to completely separate the food etc so they buy/make/clean their meals and we do ours. Or do I have to continue to feed them MY food!! Does that make more sense?? Sorry

You may be allowed to divide food, but will have to provide them space to store their food. But that is about it. And they are of course required to pay you rent though the time they move out,

I don't know if, strictly speaking, it is legal to cut these services whether they were agreed in the rent. You should check your state's landlord-tenant act. Depending on the wording of the act, it may be illlegal to cut services if that is the motive for doing so.
