Need some advise on this Crazy tenant

So I have this crazy tenant. I have this property which has electric baseboard heating system. Tenant complained about lack of heat in the house, while questioning found out that she does not want to turn on the heating system on for long as she thinks that will increase the electric bill. I tried to convince her that this system works like central heating system only, if she doesn't keep it on, it will not give instant heat, but I failed to convince her. 

.I even gave her option to relocate to another finished house of mine or option to break the lease, with full deposit refund from me,  but she still went to court for escrow and stopped paying rent. On top of that she went to separate court for claim of reimbursement for her inconvenience. I am just tired of this tenant, she never talks to me directly, but straightaway goes to court (third time in 8 months). What option do I have to evict this person, or deal with her in the court?

Thanks

@amit 

@Amit Barman sounds like you have a "professional tenant". I think it mwas get be time to see legal counsel council on this one. Also important to know your landlord tenant laws
