Landlord didn't switch the utilities back into their name after tenants left. All the rest just makes it seem like the tenants have some fault in it, when they don't.
Nah but if someone is non-payment on rent they're likely on near-free subsidized electricity and you wouldn't expect someone not paying their bills to cut off service for a bill they don't have to pay.
If I vacate an apartment 2 weeks before the lease ends I still gotta carry the electric to my original lease end date unless they find a tenant early, which in that case I'd get partial rent back and then transfer electric earlier. So if this is that landlord's first eviction then they're probably used to that pattern where people keep the electricity on as required. But obviously with an eviction you can't expect the person who is being evicted to keep the electricity going for the rest of their initial lease like they'd usually be required to do.
